Mono/CNM Mixed Dynamic Relationship Structured Support Group

Coaching support group for relationships where one partner wants monogamy and the other wants nonmonogamy, led by an expert coach

Are you are in a mixed-dynamic mono/CNM relationship, where one person wants exclusivity and another person wants multiple partners? Could you use some support figuring out if/how to navigate that complexity? Then consider joining Dr. Elisabeth “Eli” Sheff for a 6-week structured support group. From September 17th, 24th, October 1, 8, 15,22 we will meet every Wednesday evening at 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern time for information, discussion, questions, and support.

This is a hybrid support group/informational course that combines brief power point presentations on key ideas, large and small group discussions, and homework assignments. Each session lasts for six weeks, with live online meetings once a week.

Each week has a specific focus and homework, so the series is more structured than the usual support group, but it is more discussion-focused than a true class. For more information and registration see the link below. For questions, contact Dr. Eli at drelisheff@gmail.com. Sliding scale is available; please contact us at events@tamarapincus.com to discuss it.

About your facilitator

Dr. Elisabeth "Eli" Sheff (she/her) has researched polyamorous families with children for over 25 years. She is the author of four books, 30+ peer-reviewed publications, and 130+ blogs on Psychology Today, with 10+ years’ experience coaching people facing challenges with CNM and BDSM. Dr. Eli specializes in the mono/CNM mismatch because she intellectualized her fear, and has been the mono partner in two CNM/mono marriages. Her super-power is combining research findings and trends gleaned from her coaching practice with personal insights to understand if, when, and how mono/CNM relationships can work or not.
