Help with
Anger Management, High Conflict, and
Abusive Relationships
Is everything a fight, overly stressful, and complicated? Do you feel like you're walking on egg shells, avoiding each other, feeling hopeless yet some part of you still longs for common ground and connection? Perhaps you're wondering if it's time to give up.
I have helped hundreds if not thousands of couples with these issues.
Open Relationships, Ethical Non-Monogamy, Polyamory
Are you considering opening your relationship or encountering challenges with a relationship that's already open?
Whether establishing or reworking agreements, running into unexpected feelings, or grappling with issues unrelated to your relationship-structure but wanting to work with someone familiar and supportive of unconventional/non-conforming relationships, I'm here to help.

Aaron J. Feldman, LMFT
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (MFC43209)
Licensed since 2006 and working with couples since 2002, I specialize in communication, anger management, and open relationships. I also help couples with parenting, infidelity, work-life balance, life transitions, grief, and pretty much everything within, between, and beyond.
Shared and common as problems might be, each person and relationship is unique, so what I will have to offer is tailored to you specifically.
Our temperament, gender, culture, personal and relationship history, identities, tendencies, habits, practices, dynamics, and circumstances all contribute to inherent challenges and solutions. I listen for and attend to these aspects of you and your life when working together.
My style, embued with warmth and humor, is spacious but also focused, depthful but also practical.
