Dating in the modern world can be incredibly challenging. In a culture now deeply intertwined with “swiping”, low effort, and ghosting, dating can feel like an impossible puzzle. You might be feeling worn out, hopeless, jaded, or frustrated.

After months or years of searching for your person, you may be wondering “what’s wrong with me?” - your self-worth has taken a painful hit. Weighed down with fears about the future, sadness on whether building a family is possible, and confusion on what you can actually control, things feel hopeless.

But it’s not; there’s a way to feel centered in your self-worth as you navigate the dating terrain.

our process

how we’ll address dating stress in therapy

Create a healthier dating mindset.


We’ll identify the unhelpful and distorted way your mind thinks about dating and rewire the way you think, so that you’re not weighed down by hopelessness. You’ll learn ways to create authentic inner narratives that are neutral and compassionate, and learn how to align with your values so that life can feel fulfilling in the meantime of finding your person. 

1

Deepen your self-worth.


You’ll learn how to dismantle negative core beliefs and how to manage all the tough emotions that come with dating without linking them to your worthiness. We’ll work on strengthening your sense of self-worth so it stays at the forefront when dating—rather than fear, comparison, or hopelessness. This helps you approach dating from a place of confidence and self-respect, not pressure or self-doubt.

2

Understanding patterns and what you want.

Together, we’ll clarify what you’re looking for in dating and in a partner based on your values. We’ll also explore past dating experiences and attachment patterns with compassion, using them as insight for growth rather than self-criticism, to help you create a secure attachment style. 

3

Manage anxiety and difficult emotions.

You’ll learn grounding and body-based tools to calm anxiety, reduce rumination, and stay balanced as you navigate the dating world. This can help dating take up less mental space and feel more manageable. Through mindfulness, you’ll learn to embody acceptance, compassion, and presence.

FAQ

  • The short answer is not necessarily. But what therapy can do is set you up for better dating success by shifting negative patterns that are blocking you, helping you feel grounded in the process of dating, and dating from a place of clarity and high self-worth. When you feel more balanced and whole, the likelihood of manifesting your partner gets closer.

  • Dating and relationship history can be traumatic. It can leave deep wounds that are painful and impact how you see yourself and move through the dating world, but these wounds are often unconscious and impact not only how we date but our identity. Therapy can help address these wounds while helping you create as much fulfillment and joy as possible, while seeking your life partner.

  • While there are elements of coaching, such as practical steps to implement while dating, our focus goes deeper, to address both the present emotional stress presented with dating, as well as the underlying negative beliefs and core wounds that are unconsciously impacting you and the way you date. Our main intention is on you and creating the healthiest, most fulfilled version possible; not on finding you a long term partner.
