Intentional Relationship Therapy in Brooklyn

For Monogamous, Polyamorous, and Everything In Between & Outside

Strong relationships don't happen by default—they're built intentionally. Whether you're in a monogamous partnership, exploring polyamory, navigating an open relationship, or designing something entirely your own, the work is fundamentally the same: clear communication, sustainable agreements, processing difficult emotions, and building trust.

Our therapists in Brooklyn work with all relationship structures because we understand that the relationship form you choose isn't the problem. The work is about developing the skills to make your relationships thrive—whatever they look like.

What brings people to relationship therapy:

For all relationship structures:

  • Communication breakdowns or recurring conflict patterns

  • Navigating major transitions (moving in, having kids, career changes)

  • Processing jealousy, insecurity, or trust issues

  • Rebuilding after betrayal or rupture

  • Figuring out what you actually want from your relationships

  • Balancing individual needs with relationship needs

  • Managing conflict without damage

Additional focuses for polyamorous/ENM relationships:

  • Opening a previously monogamous relationship

  • Managing time, energy, and resources across multiple partnerships

  • Communication between partners and metamours

  • Processing jealousy and cultivating compersion

  • Building sustainable relationship agreements

  • Navigating different relationship styles (hierarchical, non-hierarchical, relationship anarchy, kitchen table, parallel polyamory)

  • Breakups within polyamorous structures

For monogamous couples exploring intentional relationship building:

  • Defining what monogamy means for you (monogamish, traditional, etc.)

  • Creating relationship agreements that go beyond assumptions

  • Building emotional intimacy and maintaining connection

  • Navigating mismatched desires or needs

  • Strengthening communication beyond default patterns

Our approach:

We don't assume your relationship structure is the problem—or the solution. Instead, we work with you to build the skills and awareness that help your specific relationships function better. This means:

  • We don't default to monogamy or polyamory as "better"—we start with what works for you

  • Focus on practical tools for communication, conflict resolution, and emotional regulation

  • Understanding that different relationship structures have different challenges and opportunities

  • Helping you build relationships that match your actual values, not inherited scripts.
