3 HOUR INTENSIVES FOR

Couples who want to open their relationship

lOOKING TO RADICALLY CHANGE YOUR RELATIONSHIP STRUCTURE……

clarify your individual why and together consider how

How do we feel about…..

  • You get to decide what type of relationships you want to explore: casual sex, dating separately, or dating together are a few options. Let’s consider what each of your desires are and how to pursue them.

  • Your relationship has strengths, rituals and expectations that are meaningful to you. However, they might not be well defined or acknowledged. Let’s identify and define what rituals and expectations you want to protect as you change the structure of your relationship.

  • How much free time is available to you outside of your current committments and rituals.

  • Anxiety and insecurity can lead to unreasonable demands for transparency. Let’s discuss what to be transparent about: expectations, agreed upon structure of relationship, and how to communicate when someone’s feeling jealous, neglected or insecure.

  • Is it realistic given your current living situation to host dates or will you need to reserve a budget for accomodations?

Three hour intensive - what it looks like

I’ve completed Martha Kauppi’s Level 1 training on consenual non-monogamy and will guide you through several topics to consider before pursuing non-monogamy. Whether you’re both ready to jump in to non-monogamy or one of you has doubts, exploring your thoughts and feelings regarding fidelity, monogamy, autonomy, closeness and jealousy will allow you to create the relationship (s) you desire. There are many ways to engage in consensual non-monogamy. Let’s discover your why and then create a plan for how to get started on your journey.

The first hour will be spent learning about the current areas of strengths and challenges in your relationship. We’ll quickly review your relationship history and identify any areas of challenge that need to be accounted for as you consider opening up your relationship to other partners.

The second hour will be spent identifying your why and exploring possibilities of how to engage with your desires in a way that feels manageable to your current lifestyle and relationship.

The third hour will be spent on specific next steps and creating loose agreements. I say loose because agreements that tend to work best in non-monogamy offer a safe frame work to explore, without creating rules that restrict exploration.
