This intensive workshop series will provide you and your partner with the information, resources, and skills necessary to take your relationship from monogamy to non-monogamy in 6 months.

- Have you and your partner been talking about “opening up” your relationship and aren’t sure where or how to get started?

- Or have you and your partner been monogamous for sometime and always wondered about what other options were available?

- Perhaps your partner brought up this whole non-monogamy thing and you aren’t sure if it’s right for you… or even what it all means…

All of this can feel overwhelming to navigate, so through this program, I am here to help you figure out what works best for you and your partner(s).

Courageous-you-lgbtq+-therapist

My name is Sarah Wolfer, and I am a practicing psychotherapist and virtual relationship coach with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I am also both queer and polyamorous myself, and have dedicated my therapy and coaching practices to supporting these two groups that I am SO passionate about working with.

Throughout my own life and in my work with clients, I have seen the benefits and stressors involved when we do relationships differently. So in this 6 month program, you will receive education, community support, and guidance on how to best make your way through the challenges that come up when deciding to open up your existing relationship.

Here's how it works:

Every month, there will be a 3 hour intensive workshop on a specific theme

Workshop themes will include learning an overview of the basic terms and relationship structures, managing difficult emotions such as jealousy, figuring out your boundaries and how to communicate those with your partner(s), attachment styles and how they show up in non-monogamy, identifying your needs versus desires, understanding sexual health best practices, and actual logistics of how to make non-monogamy work in your life.

These workshops will take place on the last Saturday of each month

They will go from 9am PST-12pm PST beginning on May 27th and ending on October 28th. These workshops are open to anyone, living anywhere in the world, as they will be offered 100% virtually.

Each Workshop includes:

Psychoeducation, small and large group sharing and skill practice, and you’ll be provided with a take-home workbook each month with additional resources and activities for you to complete together and separate from your partner in the weeks following each workshop.

You can choose to attend just one (or more) workshops based on the topic for those months, or you can get discounted pricing by opting into the full 6 month program.

The Cost of the Workshop Series

Each individual workshop costs $200 per couple ($100 per person) and I have a limited number of 50% off scholarships available for couples who identify as POC, LGBTQIA, or are otherwise experiencing marginalization in their lives. If you feel this applies to your situation, please send me an email at sarahwolfercoaching@gmail.com.

If you would like to attend the full 6 month program, the cost is $900 per couple (equaling to $150 per workshop). For this option you can opt to pay in full at the time of registration, or I have 3 month payment plans available as well ($300/month per couple).

What can you expect to get out of this workshop?

At the end of this program, you will have learned all about the basics of non-monogamy and how to open up your relationship well. You can expect to learn about different relationship styles, your individual and relationship values, how to navigate challenging emotions such as jealousy, the differences between rules and boundaries and how to actually set them, and the logistics of making all this work in your life.

What other benefits are there? 

You will also be surrounded by a community of other folx on similar journeys as you and you’ll be offered the opportunity to learn from one another in the space we create.

There will be other benefits made available to you throughout this program including discounted private coaching sessions, extra resources, and fun surprises along the way.

If you're ready to learn more about how to actually make this relationship style work in your life, then you can sign up HERE now.
