Therapy for Neurodivergent Couples Exploring Ethical Non-Monogamy & Polyamory in California
You tried opening your relationship, but it blew up. Now you need some guidance to do it right.
You tried opening your relationship, but it blew up. You're nursing a broken heart, wondering if ENM is for you or even a valid option. Your thoughts are racing, you're doubting yourself and feel completely overwhelmed. You're not ok and your partners are not ok, but you're committed to continuing to explore ENM.
If your brain works differently — ADHD, autistic, or somewhere in between — neurodivergence adds a whole other layer to this. You already know the standard advice rarely fits. Most therapy frameworks weren't built for your brain. You need someone who already has the guidebook, not someone reading it for the first time.
Does ENM really work? Yes it can and you deserve to create fulfilling, loving and authentic relationships without shame, without turmoil.
ENM Therapy Can Help
And that's where I come in. I bring ten years of lived experience practicing ethical non-monogamy as well as professional training to help you achieve the relationship and the life you want.
Here's how I help:
-
Create an agreement with a clear, step-by-step plan that honors everyone's needs and minimizes surprise or harm
-
Repair broken trust with guided repair conversations, clear expectations for the future, accountability plans, and practical steps to rebuild safety
-
Establish regular check-ins to catch problems early before they blow up
You'll leave sessions with communication tools, negotiation scripts, boundary practices, and a recovery roadmap — so opening relationships, making agreements, and repairing ruptures become manageable, intentional, and lasting.
I'll help you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach to ENM comes from a place of lived experience and professional training: design your life and your relationships the way you want and not what others say you "should" do.
FAQS
-
What are ENM therapy sessions like?
Sessions are 50 minutes of a mix of talking and doing. We'll dig into what's happening in your relationships, but you won't just leave with insights — you'll leave with actual tools. Think communication scripts, agreements you've drafted together, repair conversations we've practiced in session. It's practical, it's collaborative, and there's no judgment about your relationship structure or how you got here.
-
How long do I need to be in therapy?
That depends on where you're starting from. Some clients come in navigating a specific rupture and are ready to move on after a few months. Others are building from the ground up and want longer-term support. What I can tell you is that we'll move at your pace — your needs come first, not a predetermined timeline.
-
How do I know if ENM therapy will work for me?
If you're committed to making ENM work — even when it's hard — and you're willing to show up and do the work, we have something to build on. You don't need to have it figured out. You don't need to come in with the right answers. You just need to be willing. My ten years of lived ENM experience combined with clinical training means I'm not learning the basics on your time — we can get right to what matters.
-
How do we get started?
Simple — book your first session. We'll use that time to get clear on what's happening, what you need, and where we're headed. No intake forms to wade through, no preliminary hoops. Just show up and we'll get to work.
