Platonic Relational Therapy


Platonic Dyads, including but not limited to

  • Business Partners. Co-owners can gain greater understanding of their strengths, communication styles, and conflict strategies for the betterment of your professional lives.

  • Colleagues for specialty conflict support in ongoing collaborative spaces.

  • Artistic Collaborators. Therapy for artistic collaborators can help deepen trust, understanding, and a shared vision when testing your limits through artistic expression. Check out superband BoyGenius singing the praises of this.

  • Community members. Many queer folks are familiar with the gift and the challenge of staying in relationship with community members following rupture. You may need help clarifying your agreements, navigating new boundaries, and learning how to re-regulate within a new chapter of your dynamic. Depending on the presenting problem, group therapy may be more appropriate.

  • Friends. Sometimes called the family we choose, friendships are the backbone of a strong social support network. In the era of cutoff & disposability culture, sometimes you need extra support to help a relationship heal and grow.

  • Roommates / House-share. Much like family dynamics, cohousing almost always reflects our intergenerational patterns and expectations of others; this can lead to highly stressful conflict if left untended. When both/all parties are committed to continued cohabitation, therapy is a great option

A growing sector in the world of therapy, many platonic pairs or dyads seek counseling as a relational unit to achieve goals important to their relationship. Oftentimes these goals run very parallel to traditional couples work, but are shaped to meet the needs of your particular dyad.

Dyadic relational therapy is ripe with possibilities, and I gladly offer the following services:
