Polyamory and non monogamy are not one thing. They are a wide spectrum of ways to love, relate, and build a life. For some people this is a practice. For others it is an identity. However you describe your relationships, they can bring experiences that are both expansive and defining, beautiful and hard.

​

What we can explore together​

• Communication and repair. Naming needs, making agreements, and finding your voice when there has been hurt.

• Attachment wounds. Working with the old patterns that can make closeness feel risky, distant, or overwhelming.

• Boundaries. Learning how to ask for what you need, say no with care, and hold agreements with respect.

• Jealousy and comparison. Meeting strong feelings with compassion and building steadiness when fears are stirred up.

• Pacing and time. Finding ways to balance different relationship speeds, schedules, and the energy that comes with them.

• Agreements. Designing, revisiting, and renegotiating what supports everyone involved.

• Sexual health and safety. Building confidence in communication about testing, safer sex practices, and caring for your whole self.

• Stigma and disclosure. Deciding who to tell, navigating family or community reactions, and living in a culture that assumes monogamy.

My approach​

This page reflects an area of focus within my broader practice. I have lived experience in queer and polyamorous communities, and I offer care that is affirming and steady. I work with individuals only through secure telehealth across Oregon.

​​

We begin with what matters to you. I listen for your values and what support would feel most useful right now. We might practice communication skills, prepare for important conversations, or use gentle body based tools to meet waves of emotion without getting swept away. We may also explore how past experiences shape present patterns, and how to move with more steadiness and choice.

Relationship work often connects with broader themes of life transitions and identity. You can also explore my services page to see other areas where I offer support.

This is a place where you do not need to explain or defend who you are. If you are looking for thoughtful support that respects your relationships and your autonomy, I am here.
