Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
As humans, we are wired for connection. Navigating a healthy, fulfilling long-term relationship is challenging and requires all parties to be willing to grow emotionally.
As someone who believes in and supports a diversity of relational styles including monogamous, ethically non-monogamous, polyamorous, etc. we can work together to help you craft the right communication skills for whatever type of relationship you are developing with your partner or partners. I believe the most essential piece for a thriving union is direct, honest, and kind communication between individuals. Recognizing that we live in a world with a vast range of gender identities and sexualities—including queer, gay and lesbian, bisexual, asexual, and straight—I am invested in helping you identify the specific issues you will need to address in order to achieve a more well-rounded partnership. Together we will determine and implement the tools necessary to cultivate an open and connected dialogue within your relationship. These skills will allow you to generatively deal with topics like sex, ethical non-monogamy, finances, children, and careers (to name a few).
