Does Esther Perel advocate for open relationships?

Answered in Esther Perel's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

My work is not about prescribing specific relationship structures like polyamory or open relationships. Instead, I focus on the universal human experience of desire and the tension between security and adventure in all forms of committed partnerships. The goal is to help individuals and couples navigate these inherent tensions within their chosen relational context, fostering greater authenticity, connection, and erotic vitality, regardless of whether the relationship is monogamous or not.
