Do you feel lost in the sea of swiping left and right?
Online dating can be an overwhelming experience filled with highs and lows. The constantly shifting landscape of profiles, messages, and expectations can create significant stress and anxiety. It often feels like a never-ending cycle of swiping, messaging, and disappointment, which can leave you feeling isolated and frustrated.

How therapy can help
Therapy for dating can help you gain clarity about what you want and need from a partner.
It can help you better understand your attachment style and your patterns for being in relationship and how these show up when you dating.
Counseling can provide you with here-and-now skills to help you have a healthy mindset about the dating process, an understanding of how to set healthy boundaries while dating and effective communication skills about what you’re looking for.
A combination of deeper insight about yourself combined with skills to help you feel confident and clear about what you’re looking for, will help you approach dating with a confident and hopeful outlook.
How we help:
Psychodynamic therapy
Psychodynamic therapy offers you valuable insight for navigating the complexities and stress of dating. By exploring unconscious patterns and past experiences, it can help you understand where where your attachment and relationship patterns originated and how they impact the dating process.
It fosters self-awareness, allowing you to recognize how your history influences your dating choices and interactions. As you uncover your underlying motivations and needs in your search for a partner, you’ll develop healthier relationship patterns, enhance communication skills and build stronger connections with potential partners.
Ultimately, psychodynamic therapy empowers you to approach dating with increased confidence and clarity, leading to more fulfilling and meaningful relationships.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns that impact your actions and feelings about the process of dating.
CBT helps you address any anxieties or fears you have related to dating. It can help you learn to reframe self-doubt and build confidence, enabling you to have healthier interactions and relationships.
Through here-and-now skills, CBT encourages self-reflection, fosters emotional resilience, and promotes positive communication skills. As a supportive tool, it can assist you in create fulfilling connections while fostering a better understanding of your wants and needs in the dating process.
We also utilize EMDR, DBT and mindfulness skills to help on your dating journey.
