Jealousy has a way of coming back.
Maybe you and your partner opened up six months ago and the emotional terrain is harder than either of you expected. Or you've been polyamorous for years and the same arguments keep showing up in every new relationship. You may be navigating a metamour dynamic that's pulling at your original partnership. Or you're the more confident one in your structure and watching your partner struggle to catch up. Perhaps you've tried therapy before and spent half the session explaining your relationships to a therapist who couldn't quite hide their judgment.
You've done the hard part. This is where you get the support to keep it standing.
You're ready to
-
Move out of circular arguments that keep showing up no matter how many books you've read or processing sessions you've had
-
Build secure attachment in non monogamous structures so jealousy and scarcity don't run the show
-
Navigate the hard conversations (boundaries, hierarchy shifts, new partners, breakups, family disclosure) with clarity and care
HOW IT WORKS
It's possible to mean it when you tell your partner to go, have a good time, and actually feel it. Instead of bracing until they're home.
I bring 10 years of lived experience practicing ethical non-monogamy. I know this terrain because I've lived it.
You will leave each session with something real to use before the next one: words for what you're feeling when "jealousy" is too small for it, a way to steady yourself when a partner walks out the door for a date, one thing to try the next time a new partner shifts the ground under you.
The structure isn't the problem. You're not broken for loving this way. The hard part is what shows up once you're in it for real. The jealousy you thought you'd worked through. The old fear of being left, flaring at the worst possible time. The metamour you genuinely like and still feel threatened by. I've felt all of it. I know the difference between the jealousy that's telling you something true and the jealousy that's just an old wound talking.
Using IFS, EFT, and trauma informed care, we get underneath it. We get to know the part of you that panics when a partner pulls away, the part that keeps score, the part still sure there isn't enough love to go around. We don't try to silence them. We help them settle. Then we build the kind of security that holds across all of it, every partner, every bond, because it starts with you, not with any of them.
You've already built something most people never even attempt. Now you've got a guide who's built it too.
