Therapy that understands how love really works

Relationships don’t come with a single rulebook

They evolve, change, and sometimes challenge everything we thought we knew about connection.

At The Polyam Practice, we specialise in therapy for open, polyamorous, and consensually non-monogamous people — because we believe that love in all its forms deserves thoughtful, informed, and judgment-free support.

We know that non-traditional relationships are still often misunderstood, even in therapy rooms. Our practice exists to change that: to create a space where you can bring your whole relational life — with honesty, nuance and pride.

What we believe

All relationships deserve respect

Whether you’re monogamous, polyamorous, solo-poly, or exploring something in between — your relationships matter. We approach every client and every structure with curiosity, empathy, and respect.

Love is a skill

Healthy open relationships are about clear communication, respectful boundaries, emotional literacy and care. Therapy helps you build those skills — not suppress your feelings.

There’s no single ‘right way’ to do non-monogamy

Some people thrive in polycules. Others prefer open relationships that keep emotional focus at home. We support you in finding what works for you, without trying to fit you into another ill-fitting relationship box.

Emotions aren’t the enemy

Jealousy, fear, and insecurity are part of being human — not signs you’re “bad at polyamory.” We will help you understand what those feelings are telling you, and how to handle them with compassion and clarity.

Inclusivity is non-negotiable

Our clients come from all walks of life, and we respect the intersection of relationship dynamics with identity, race, gender, class and culture.

How we work

Our approach blends psychodynamic and psychosexual therapy with a specialist understanding of non-monogamous dynamics.

We work collaboratively: you bring your experiences, your dilemmas, your story.

We bring curiosity, compassion and care. Together, we explore what helps you feel secure and connected — within yourself and your relationships.

Sessions can be individual, couple, or group (polycules), depending on what you need.

Because everyone deserves therapy that sees them fully.

Too many people in open and polyamorous relationships feel misunderstood in traditional couple therapy.

We want to offer a space where you don’t have to explain or justify your relationship style before you can start healing or growing.

At its core, our work is about connection — helping you create relationships built on honesty, empathy and trust, however your love life is configured.
