Gender, Sexual, and Relationship Diversity

2SLGBTQIA+ Affirming

We are aware of the societal norms and constructs that contribute to the unique experiences of our clients. In particular, Jennifer has extensive knowledge about the experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ clients go through in life. Her caring and ethical approach to therapy offers clients a safe container for them to land and reflect on their upbringing, attitudes, biases and beliefs.

We are committed to supporting our clients in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community to heal the hurt, fear, and negative beliefs that many carry as a result of marginalization, trauma or developmental abuse. Through therapy we can support, affirm and celebrate clients’ capacity to uncover their valuable inner resources and move towards what they believe is their most authentic life.

Polyamory & ethical non-monogamy (ENM)

We identify as affirming therapists and embrace the identities of our clients. We are aware of the experience of judgment and rejection that people considering or practicing diverse relationships encounter.

We understand the potential influences of biases arising from the idea that romantic and sexual relationships are only normal between two people. Jennifer’s lived experience with the ENM and polyamory gives her a deep understanding of the process of exploring and practicing non-monogamy.

Polyamory and ethical non-monogamy therapy can help you reflect on issues such as navigating and communicating boundaries, co-creating consensual decisions making, and expanding your capacity to connect with your loved ones.
