For queer, non-monogamous, neurodivergent, and psychedelic-curious humans and the professionals who support them, building love and healing on their own terms.
The monogamy-superiority myth is a pervasive assumption that monogamous relationships are inherently more stable, intimate, or emotionally safe. However, the 2025 meta-analysis by Anderson et al. analyzed 35 studies with over 24,000 participants and found no significant differences in relationship satisfaction or sexual satisfaction between monogamous and non-monogamous individuals.
Finding a therapist who truly gets non-monogamy shouldn’t feel like a high-stakes scavenger hunt. But for many polyamorous and open folks, that’s exactly what it is. Too often, therapy becomes the place where you end up explaining your relationship style instead of receiving support for what brought you in. It can be exhausting, invalidating, and even harmful. The good news? You can take control of the search.
