HI, I'M AMY
Relationship coach
Specialised in nonmonogamy
I am a transformational coach for those who wish to connect with themselves and others authentically and abundantly to build expansive and fulfilling relationships. In my practice, I hold space and advocate for all identities and expressions of selfhood.
WHY DO I SPECIALISE IN NONMONOGAMY?
After struggling to find support in traditional therapy and counselling, I decided to specialise in nonmonogamy. Research shows that nonmonogamous individuals often face stigmatisation and our relational choice/orientation is seen as a symptom of psychological disturbance or moral failure. , even from counsellors and therapists. To address this, I've created a safe, accepting space for clients to explore their relationship choices without judgement, empowering them to embrace their authentic selves and foster healthy, fulfilling, and ethical nonmonogamous connections.
I WORK WITH
Individuals
I work with individuals who want to build a love connection with themselves.
Our most important and rewarding relationship is with ourselves, and through that relationship, we model to others how we want to be loved. This is a deeply personal journey that can happen alone or within relationships.
​
This is for people who want to love themselves, explore their identities, be happily single, or define how they want to build future relationships.
Relationships
I work with all relationship configurations to find authentic, joyful ways to connect.
​
No matter the configuration, relationships are all founded on the same principles and can flourish when we learn how to safely connect, communicate, and validate our experiences and needs.
​
Relationship work focuses on structure, boundaries, symbolism and meaning, finding bliss, communication, and problem-solving.
Professionals
I educate professionals who want to provide ethical care to novogamous and sexually diverse clients.
There is currently a gap in care education, which leaves psychologists, social workers, counsellors, and other care professionals lacking the skills and knowledge to provide their clients with inclusive, ethical support beyond their bounds of understanding and training.
I work directly with professionals or facilitate client-professional understanding in existing relationships.
BEYOND MONOGAMY IS LOVE EQUALITY &
NOVOGAMY
Let's create new spectacular ways to love and connect!
Novogamy is the transbinary umbrella term encompassing all relationship structures, and it stands for freedom and equality. It moves beyond the classical mono-poly binary and recognises that there are countless ways to love, and these can change over our life spans and even from one relationship to another.
Novogamy calls us to move away from boxes and labels and instead define every relationship as sacred spaces for connectedness, intimacy, fun, radical honesty, trust, authenticity, and abundant love. In this space, we can navigate the degrees of openness like we navigate finances, living arrangements, and time spent with friends or on hobbies.
​
However, the classic structures below can guide us and remind us that many unique ways to build relationships exist.

F.A.Q.
Q: What is nonmonogamy relationship Coaching? A: Nonmonogamy relationship coaching is a specialised form of coaching that supports individuals or couples exploring or engaging in nonmonogamous (novogamous) relationships, such as open relationships, polyamory, or swinging. The coach helps clients navigate the unique challenges and complexities of nontraditional relationship structures by providing guidance on effective communication, boundary setting, emotional management, and conflict resolution. This tailored coaching approach empowers clients to create and maintain healthy, fulfilling, and ethical nonmonogamous relationships that align with their values and desires.
Q: What is Relationship Coaching? A: Relationship coaching is a type of professional coaching that focuses on helping people create healthy, fulfilling relationships with themselves and others.

I support people in gaining the skills and understanding necessary to build and maintain healthy relationships, regardless of their gender identity, sexual orientation, or whether or not they practice monogamy.
Q: How Can Relationship Coaching Help Me? A: Relationship coaching can help you identify growth areas, create action plans for change, and explore your beliefs and values to create healthy and fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.

Q: What's the difference between a coach and a therapist? A: A relationship coach empowers clients to enhance their interpersonal relationships by fostering effective communication skills, conflict resolution strategies, and personal growth. This proactive approach helps individuals create more fulfilling connections and navigate relationship challenges with confidence. While therapists address emotional and psychological issues through diagnosis and treatment of mental health disorders, a relationship coach's future-oriented focus is aimed at unlocking clients' potential and providing them with the tools needed to build and maintain thriving relationships.
For some of my work I use
TALKING SYMBOLS
These are symbols I've collected over many years. Each represents a feeling, an action, a philosophy, or a story, and I used them as prompts to explore situations and gain insights for clarity and decision-making.
