As dating and relationship experts, we have an in-depth understanding of allllll the complicated dynamics and histories that can come up in relationships.

If it feels like despite reflecting, trying to break patterns, setting boundaries, or asserting your needs, you’re still ending up in familiar dynamics - you’re not alone.

Relationships are extra tricky because it’s never just you and the other person - there is always history in the room - shaping how each of you show up.

Dredging up the past might not seem like the most practical path forward, and we get that. Which is why our approach is both reflective and active. We help you recognize when old patterns are repeating (or about to repeat) and give you concrete, actionable steps to respond differently in the present.

By deepening your understanding of how you relate, attach, and unconsciously replay earlier relational experiences, you can begin to feel more secure, confident, and fulfilled in your connections.

Relationships aren’t easy - navigating compromise, incompatibility, hurt feelings, attachment wounds, personal or familial trauma, or emotional wounds can be overwhelming.

We help you sort through it all to figure out what’s yours, what’s theirs, and what it actually takes to have healthy relationships.
