Sex Therapy for Modern Relationships: Polyamory, Kink, and Emotional Safety

You don’t fit the mold — and neither should your therapy.

More and more people are exploring polyamory, kink, open relationships, and fluid identities. And yet many therapists still approach these dynamics with outdated assumptions or subtle judgment.

I’m here to change that.

What Is a Sex-Positive, Kink- and Poly-Affirming Therapist?

It means:

  • I support your autonomy, pleasure, and identity without shame

  • I hold space for consensual non-monogamy, BDSM, or other non-traditional dynamics

  • I help clients navigate the emotional and relational complexities with skill, not stigma

What Brings People to Therapy in Non-Traditional Relationships?

  • Jealousy and boundary confusion in polyamory

  • Exploring power dynamics in kink with consent and emotional clarity

  • Shame or internalized stigma about identity or desire

  • Communication struggles between partners with different needs

  • Navigating family, social, or cultural pressures

Sex therapy provides a nonjudgmental space to explore identity, needs, and power dynamics with honesty and support.

A Note on Emotional Safety

Whether you’re into power play, exploring group dynamics, or practicing ethical non-monogamy — emotional safety is the foundation. That includes:

  • Knowing your boundaries

  • Being able to express them

  • Being met with respect and care

I help clients learn how to negotiate, repair, and thrive in relationships where freedom and connection can coexist.

Your relationship isn’t too much. Your desires aren’t wrong.
Let’s explore what healthy, empowered, and intentional intimacy looks like — in your language.
