About Us
Welcome to Westminster Polyamorous and Open Relationships Therapy
Founded in 2017, Westminster Polyamorous and Open Relationships Therapy (WPORT) is a dedicated news website centered on fostering understanding, acceptance, and support for polyamorous and open relationships within the therapeutic realm. Our mission is to bridge the information gap that often exists around these non-monogamous lifestyles, providing accurate, unbiased, and accessible resources for individuals seeking guidance or simply wishing to expand their knowledge.
Our Story
The idea for WPORT arose from a collective passion to challenge societal norms surrounding relationships and promote healthier alternatives. Recognizing the increasing prevalence of polyamory and open relationships, we identified a critical need for reliable information and support channels. In response, we created a platform that not only educates but also connects individuals in these communities with like-minded people and professional resources.
