Elizabeth Harles LCMHC (she/her)

I provide a relaxed, open, collaborative and non-judgmental atmosphere. When working with patients, I will cater my approach to your needs, but my natural style is goal-oriented, so I tend to delve into the issues at hand so that you can see improvement in your emotional well-being as quickly as possible. Society tends to define a romantic relationship as a one on one arrangement, but the truth is, that is not always the case.

Whether your relationship involves two or more people, or whether you have (or are considering) an open relationship, working with a polyamory-aware counselor can help you to define your boundaries as a couple, create agreements for a healthy relationship, cope with jealousy, and explore sexual and romantic relationships that fall outside of traditional concepts of monogamous arrangements. If you are beginning to explore your identity or orientation as polyamorous as an individual, it is advisable to work with a counselor who affirms and recognizes this as such.

I understand that a loving relationship can take many forms, and my aim when working with clients is at affirming healthy, ethical, consensual non-monogamous relationships.
