Nonmonogamy
Coaching

For me, nonmonogamy is more than a relationship structure. It's a deeply personal identity that challenges monogamous norms and opens space for greater connection, love, and freedom. I approach this work from a decolonial feminist perspective, recognising that traditional relationship narratives often stem from colonial and patriarchal structures that don't serve everyone.

I advocate for a relational model that honours your journey toward individuation. This means you can find your own truth within your relationships, and your needs, desires, and boundaries are respected. This focus is essential in nonmonogamy, allowing you to stay connected to personal growth while building relationships based on authenticity.

I'm also one of the "parents" of the Beyond Monogamy SA WhatsApp Community, where we host social events and provide peer support for the consensual non-monogamy (CNM) community. Feel free to join via the link.

Why work with me?

I've spent years advocating for relational diversity, which led to my involvement in writing a comprehensive training module on the topic for professional intimacy coaches. I know this terrain deeply.

On a personal note, I am happily married in a nonmonogamous relationship. Many people exploring this path haven't seen examples of this way of relating lasting and thriving. I offer my own experience as proof that it is possible to build a loving, stable partnership on your own terms.

Importantly, my work is always about supporting your freedom of choice. I fully respect monogamy as a beautiful and legitimate way of relating. I never try to push nonmonogamy onto clients. Whether you're exploring or seeking clarity, my role is to support you in finding what is true for you.

If you're looking for guidance on exploring or deepening your relationships, I offer a holistic, trauma-informed approach rooted in deep respect for your personal needs. My work blends psychological and spiritual insights to help you create relationships that feel true to who you are.
