Polyamorous and Open Relationships

Alana Ogilvie (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT, CST

Opening up a relationship or re-contracting an existing one can be daunting. I have experience working with polyamorous individuals and couples on issues such as contracting, jealousy and emotional transparency.

Lolo Haha (he/him)

Somatic Practitioner

M.A., Diploma of Process Work

As a non-monogamous practitioner, I work with polyamorous, non-monogamous, and relationship anarchist individuals, couples, and polycules to deepen their awareness and communication strategies toward greater autonomy, deeper relatedness, and more intentional decision-making in relationship. I believe that it is important as someone from these identities to work with someone who has lived and understand these experiences, and can help with the different challenges along the way.

Michaela Curtis-Joyce (they/them)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

I understand that finding the right support for unconventional relationships can be challenging. Sometimes the central work is around ethical non-monogamy and sometimes its nice to focus on unrelated challenges with some who "gets it".

Paula Emerick (she/they)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

Oh snap. Welcome to the world of possibility and also crazy emotions! But for real....I like to start with what needs to be unlearned and what might be holding you back individually before jumping into the realm of expectations/boundaries/etc. Again - I do not claim to be an expert...and I am also VERY willing to navigate areas that promote honesty, connection, authenticity, and trust.

Kelly Rees (she/her)

Consensual non-monogamous relationships can be very complex! I have extensive personal experience navigating them and can offer guidance on decision-making to preserve health and sanity. Finding the right type of relating can make the difference between chaos and richness. We will consider which boundaries serve you best and how you can maintain them.

Maybe you are cognitively on board with consensual nonmonogamy, but in practice are experiencing fear, confusion, anxiety, and even physical pain.

Opening up a relationship can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. Together, we will explore ways to make this relationship feel safe and secure, as well as exciting and explorative. We will discuss your boundaries, needs, and desires. We will examine socio-cultural narratives about relationships to find what fits and what does not. We will unpack your emotional responses to this experience in order to create a deeper connection between you are your partner(s).

Matthew Geraths (They/Him)

I help individuals and couples explore what relationship dynamics are right for them. Monogamy is never a given and can sometimes be destructive to the well being of those trying to force themselves into it.

Emily Ross-Johnson (she/her/hers)

Professional Counselor Associate

As a member of the poly community, I have navigated the complex waters of open and non-monogamous relationships. Learning more about our attachment styles, and our past relationship patterns can help us move into a place of being more securely attached and fulfilled in our partnerships.

Gemma Baumer (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

Master's in Counseling

There is no right way to be in relationship. We may be balancing the tension between a desire for freedom, with a craving for novelty. I believe we can feel most empowered and connected to our deepest selves and can define relationship for ourselves, whatever those configurations and boundaries may look like. There is no solution but the one that is best for you. I love working with intimate partners in defining and exploring what relationship means to them and supporting their choices.

Melissa Hartley (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

M.S. Marriage and Family Therapy

Nearly a quarter of my caseload has been centered around relationships that are practicing ethical non monogamy, transitioning into opening or closing their relationships, and other conversations around the impacts of society’s expectations for monogamy.

Renee Fitzpatrick (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LMHC, LPC

Individuals engaging in polyamorous and consensual nonmonogamous (CNM) relationships have been historically marginalized and pathologized in our society to due the halo affect of monogamous couples and nuclear-family values. However, less than 15% of families in the US today look like a nuclear family. I am both poly-knowledgeable and poly-focused in my practice, meaning that I serve clients who may be seeking therapy for polyamory/CNM-related reasons, or simply seeking poly-affirming care.

Taylor Kravitz (She/Her/Hers)

MA, LMFT

I am affirming of ethical non-monogamy and have supported partners in opening their relationship. I will help you clarify your wants, need & boundaries, tune up your communication so you have a solid foundation, and develop tools for navigating the feelings that may come up on this journey.

Jamie Krahulec (she/they)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA, BA, #R7573

I have noticed that the biggest reason for relationship distress seems to come from communication and this is not unique to a type of relationship. I can help you learn how to find meaning in the empty spaces. I believe we all have capacity in our hearts to love more than one person and as long as the partnership is consensual then there is no reason why multiple relationships should be an issue for anyone not interested.

Relationships are not one-size-fits-all and the ones you design yourself can be potentially the most fulfilling. Although non-traditional relationships face many of the same issues as traditional ones, they also have the potential to amplify or emphasize problems, especially around insecurity or jealousy.
