She Is Mother: A Couples Counselor Coaches Two Queer People in a Polyamorous Relationship

Dr. Charleanea brings us into her first coaching session with a nontraditional relationship: a queer, polyamorous unit. Dylan, S, and Jonathan have been navigating a relationship "V" and are at an impasse. Dylan, at the center of the unit, wants openness with love and intimacy. Jonathan, who is nearly ten years older, wants to buy a home and start a family. How can these two navigate a deeper relationship while meeting their respective needs? What happens when the nature of a relationship changes, and when that relationship consists of three people? Are polyamorous relationships possible, or does jealousy get in the way?

In this episode, Dr. Charleanea walks us through a relationship that breaks the mold as a queer person herself. It’s not your average conversation or “couple”. It’s your personal look into the session, wherever you are.
