Dr. Luisa Vallejos

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


I work with adults navigating relationships, intimacy, identity, and life transitions, with particular expertise in polyamory, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), and Relationship Anarchy. My approach is practical, relational, and liberation-focused. I help clients develop communication skills, emotional regulation, self-awareness, and the confidence to create relationships that reflect their values rather than simply following inherited rules Couples are seen on a private pay basis only.

I help people break free from painful relationship patterns, stop losing themselves to keep the peace, and build the capacity for authentic intimacy. Together, we'll develop the clarity to make intentional choices about how you love, relate, and live. I work affirmingly with LGBTQIA+, ENM, polyamory, relationship anarchy, kink, and sex work.

Reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you've spent years believing you should handle everything on your own. You deserve a space where all parts of you are welcome. If you're ready to begin, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

Therapist

My approach to counseling is rooted in the belief that empowerment, inclusivity, and meaningful connection can heal people. I often explore the question: What do you want from life that you aren't getting? You might want the ability to find peace in a hectic world, or to look inward, think, and reflect. You might crave more meaning and purpose in your daily life, a desire to be in relation to others, or the courage to grow into your true self.
