Queer + Poly Parent Support Group

Parenthood doesn't come with a one-size-fits-all manual — and neither should your support. This therapist-led group is a judgment-free, affirming space for LGBTQ+ and polyamorous parents to connect, be seen, and find community with others who truly get it.

This group is for you if you're:

  • An LGBTQ+ parent or expecting parent

  • In a polyamorous, open, or non-traditional relationship structure and parenting (or planning to)

  • A non-gestational parent navigating bonding, identity, or role questions

  • Feeling isolated or unseen in mainstream parenting spaces

  • Looking for community with other queer and/or poly families

Your family belongs here.
