Establishing healthy relationships as an adult is one of the hardest things we can do. It’s especially difficult when you feel inadequate, or even unlovable in some way. These feelings can become more pronounced as we navigate adult relationships for the first time in our 20s and 30s. Feeling seen, accepted, and loved is a core human need. And yet so many of us did not have these needs met growing up, leading to feelings of unworthiness, depression, or difficulty trusting others.

Now that you’re ready to find a partner, settle down and build a future, you know it’s time to heal the old wounds that keep getting in your way. Together we will explore how your upbringing and family relationships have shaped how you think and feel about yourself. We will help you process feelings that weren’t safe to feel before. My approach is grounded in the belief that the relationship we co-create in therapy is the vehicle for healing and change, and can serve as a testing ground to help you experience different ways of relating. Through the process of allowing yourself to be fully seen, you open the door to a sense of deeper self-acceptance and connection with others.
