Introduction

Love is messy. Identities are layered. Connection gets… complicated. That’s where I come in. I’m Phoenix Mandel (they/them), a queer, genderqueer Associate Marriage & Family Therapist and AASECT Certified Sexuality Educator. I work with folks who live and love outside the lines — kinky, queer, and ethically nonmonogamous adventurers, couples/ polycules, solo seekers, caregivers, and chosen families. I help people rewrite the rules of love when the old ones stop working. Together, we unpack the scripts you inherited, mend ruptures, and reimagine intimacy in ways that feel alive, embodied, and deeply true to you. My approach is collaborative and playful, blending IFS, structural family therapy, EFT, narrative, and somatic therapies. There’s celebration here of curiosity, humor, and the full spectrum of what makes us beautifully complex humans. If you’re exploring identity, connection, or desire — or if you’re a fellow therapist looking for a trusted collaborator/ referral — I’d love to connect. ✨ Currently accepting new clients - please fill out my contact form or email phoenix@resonantsourcetherapy.co Registered Associate MFT #156522, Supervised by Nicole (Niki) Khanna, LMFT #122099
