Individual Therapy

for Navigating Polyamory

in Michigan

What a Session Looks Like

In our sessions, I create a welcoming and inclusive environment where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions about navigating polyamorous relationships. I understand that being queer and engaging in ethical non-monogamy can bring about unique challenges, and I’m here to hold space for those conversations. We’ll dive into your experiences without judgment, focusing on how your identities intersect and shape your relationship dynamics. During our time together, I encourage open dialogue, allowing you to share your feelings and concerns about love, connection, and the complexities of multiple partnerships.

The Benefits of Therapy

Engaging in therapy can be incredibly beneficial as you navigate the intricacies of polyamory. You may find yourself grappling with feelings of jealousy, communication difficulties, or societal stigma surrounding your choices. I’m dedicated to helping you develop tools for effective communication and conflict resolution with your partners, empowering you to articulate your needs and desires clearly and compassionately. Together, we can identify any underlying insecurities or patterns that may be affecting your relationships and work toward fostering healthier connections. Through our sessions you'll discover the value of self-compassion, validating your experiences and providing insight into the normalcy of your struggles.

Intersection of Polyamory, Queerness, and Neurodivergence

As we explore your journey, we can also look at how polyamory relates to queerness and neurodivergence. Being queer often challenges traditional relationship norms, which can create a liberating yet complicated landscape when combined with non-monogamy. Additionally, if you identify as neurodivergent, your experiences might be shaped by different ways of processing emotions and relationships, further complicating your path in polyamorous dynamics. Understanding these intersections allows for a more nuanced approach to your experiences, offering clarity and validation.

Potential struggles you might discuss include: 

• Feeling overwhelmed by managing multiple partners’ needs and emotions

 • Navigating jealousy or insecurity in non-traditional relationships 

• Difficulty in communication, leading to misunderstandings and conflict 

• Balancing time and attention among various partner commitments 

• Handling societal stigma or external judgment about your relationship choices 

• Gender identity or sexual orientation explorations complicating relationship dynamics

 • Managing different relationship styles or expectations between you and your partners
