THERAPY FOR DATING & BREAKUPS IN NY & NJ
Learn to love & be loved —without sacrificing yourself.
You want to find “the one,” but from the way you live your life—independent, social, financially stable—no one would guess you’re lonely.
MAYBE YOU…
Feel like you’ve got it together on the outside, but dating is overwhelming and you’re tired of pretending it doesn’t bother you.
Keep running into the same kinds of people, and you’re starting to wonder if something about you is the problem.
Can’t stop thinking about your last breakup and questioning what you did wrong or if you missed your chance.
Worry that time’s running out, that everyone else is finding their person while you’re still stuck swiping and starting over.
Feel guarded and careful, scanning for red flags, but deep down you’re craving connection and scared to really let anyone in.
Put on a brave face with friends and family, but inside you’re wondering, “Will it ever be me?”
It’s not too late to build the relationship and life you want, and it starts with strengthening your relationship with yourself.
Helping you make sense of the patterns & focus on what you want out of a relationship.
Whether you’re still reeling from a breakup or just feeling burned out on dating apps and wrong fits, we’ll start by talking through what’s actually been happening for you. You don’t need to pretend you’re fine or have it all figured out—this is a space to be real. We’ll look at the patterns that keep showing up, explore what you’ve been carrying from past relationships, and get curious (not judgmental) about what’s getting in the way of connection.
From there, we’ll work on building back self-trust, cultivating your sense of worth, and learning to tune into what you actually want—not what you think you should settle for. We'll talk about boundaries, what makes you feel safe, and how to be more okay with discomfort without jumping in to fix or people-please. Whether you're dating, healing, or somewhere in between, my goal is to help you feel more grounded, clear, and connected to yourself in the process.
HOW I CAN HELP
You are not too much.
And you don’t need to shrink yourself to be loved.
WHAT WE’LL WORK ON
Therapy for dating & breakups can help you…
Understand your patterns in relationships — Take a closer look at what keeps showing up in dating or after breakups, and finally start doing things differently.
Trust again, without ignoring red flags — Learn to stay open without abandoning yourself in the process.
Feel more confident in who you are and what you bring to a relationship — Reconnect with your worth and stop bending or making yourself small to be chosen.
Let go of old stories that keep you stuck — Start releasing the baggage from past relationships so you don’t carry it into the next one.
Say “no” more often and check in with what you really want — Get better at listening to your gut instead of overriding it to avoid discomfort.
Get clear on the kind of relationship you’re actually looking for — Align your dating choices with your values, not your fears.
It’s time for love that does not cost you your peace.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How can therapy help me have better experiences with dating?
In our work together, we’ll look at what’s underneath the relationship patterns keeping you stuck, where you might be settling or trying to protect yourself from getting hurt, and what you really want in a relationship. You don’t have to keep pretending you’re fine being alone if you’re craving a deep connection. Therapy gives you space to be honest with yourself, and to move forward with more clarity and confidence.
Can therapy help me through a breakup?
Absolutely. Breakups can shake everything up—your identity, your future plans, your sense of safety. Even if the relationship wasn’t right, the loss still hits hard. Whether you're feeling stuck in the past, numb, or like you should be "over it" by now, we’ll work through those layers at your pace. I’m here to help you process what happened, make sense of the pain, and begin to rebuild something new.
Will we just talk about my childhood or focus on what’s going on now?
We’ll start with where you are right now—what’s not working, what feels heavy, what you want to change. If your past is showing up in the present (and it usually does), we’ll gently look at those pieces too, but only when it feels helpful and relevant. This isn’t about digging up the past for the sake of it—it’s about making connections that help you move forward. You’re in the driver’s seat the whole way.
