My name is Paige Bond. I go by She/Her pronouns and am a cisgender woman. I want to use this page to tell you a little bit more about me so that you are sure I am the right fit counselor for you!
*My regular working hours are Monday-Thursday 9:00am- 4:00pm EST. Available for Live Chat sessions LATER than posted availability. I do my best to respond to messages 1x per day.*
I help individuals, couples, and folx navigating sexually alternative lifestyles get the DREAM relationship they want but just need a lil guidance. That’s where I come in!
I help my clients find balance, playfulness, and fulfillment in their relationships by teaching them practical tools to use in everyday interactions so they can bridge the gap with the ones they love most.
When people start coming into therapy hashing out a new problem every week, it can seemingly take forever for resolutions to unfold. It's not exactly the express lane to problem-solving if you catch my drift. You need something more so you can take action.
I take a different approach by offering accelerated resolution therapy along with giving practical tools and exercises for you to use before, during, and after our sessions.
First, we’ll assess the cracks in your foundation and get a sense of what your DREAM relationship looks like so we have some direction of where to go.
Then, we’ll work on making repairs for built up disconnections from unresolved conflict.
After working together, you’ll have the skills to handle real conflicts with a partner when insecurity shows up so you can reconnect with intention and be authentically you.
I’m a sex-positive therapist here to let your unique expression of living relationally SHINE. I tend to work with folx who might identify as kinky, polyamorous, non-monogamous, a sex worker, or part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
My training in the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, Relational Life Therapy, and the Institute for Relational Intimacy gives away my obsession for learning how to create long lasting and healthy relationships.
My training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) can help you get relief from stress and painful experiences that are impacting you today. Why might an Accelerated Resolution Therapy be helpful? I’m a big believer in regular online talk therapy as much as the next therapist, but that can be proven tough to be efficient for some situations, specifically with stressful events or trauma.
When starting traditional therapy, you can spend the first 4-6 sessions just getting to know each other, the situation, and forming goals for treatment. Some people drop out of traditional talk therapy early on because they feel like it isn’t working and progress is too slow. With ART, you can see results as soon as the first session.
I love to offer short term-solution focused therapy and have a schedule that fluctuates in availability every couple months to honor flexibility for me and my clients.

Paige is very very dope.
She listens and fine tunes her services for the work I say I’m most focused on. She checks in with me on action items we’ve set and is super understanding with scheduling. Really she’s one of the best therapists I’ve had

I've only had a few sessions with Paige but so far she has been wonderful. She is non-judgmental and makes me feel comfortable. She is great at letting me vent but also makes sure we come up with some tangible solutions to try each session which has been more helpful than I thought!
