Are you an individual or couple looking to open up your relationship for the first time? Or maybe you have identified as poly for a while, and you would like some support through a particularly challenging time. I have been coaching & counseling non-monogamous folks for nearly a decade and have identified as polyamorous since before I knew what to call it. My passion is helping poly/non-monogamous people feel seen, heard, and understood as they traverse the challenging landscape outside of the normative paradigm. Our work will focus on deep self-reflection while building strong boundaries and expansive communication skills.
Many of my clients came to me after having been shamed by licensed practitioners who told them that the only pathway to happiness is to turn their back on who they are and take the road most traveled. Allow me to offer you a place for healing & acceptance. There is no right answer for everyone, so lets take a journey where we will find what is right for YOU.
Selecting the right therapist can be a daunting task. You've taken the first step by utilizing this search engine, and that's a lot already! If what I've said here feels like I'm talking to you, then I invite you to take the next step by scheduling a free consultation. I encourage you to ask me all the hard questions that will make your decision clear.

I do not accept insurance, however I can provide a superbill to help with reimbursement. I offer a sliding scale for those who demonstrate a financial need, as it is very important to me that people have access to a provider with open minded perspectives on relationship structures and identities.

I work primarily with polyamorous individuals and communities. Thusly, I have elected to remain unlicensed, as many feel more comfortable speaking openly without government oversight. That said, I strongly uphold professional boundaries and maintain the strictest standards of ethics and integrity.
