Explore how queer chosen family supports healing from trauma. Learn how therapy strengthens boundaries, trust, and resilience in LGBTQIA+ communities.

Polycules in therapy require more than couples models with extra chairs. This guide equips therapists with evidence-based tools for mapping networks, navigating boundaries, repairing conflicts, and supporting complex non-monogamous relationship systems with skill and care.

Explore how polyamory as liberation empowers queer, trans, and non-binary communities to resist oppressive systems, reclaim cultural roots, and create expansive, justice-centered ways of loving.

Trauma-informed care in non-monogamy isn't "regular trauma work plus extra partners." It's a deeply intentional practice that integrates safety, consent, and cultural humility with the real-world complexity of polycules, metamours, co-parents, and chosen family. Research and lived experience both show that with the right scaffolding, non-monogamy can support healing instead of re-enacting old wounds.
