Dating & Relationship Readiness Counseling

Do you find yourself feeling hopeless about dating in today’s world of apps, swipes, and ghosting?

Do you feel behind or left out when it feels like most people around you are partnered while you’re still searching?

Do you wonder whether a widening disconnect between men and women in today’s social and political climate is making it harder to find and build healthy connections?

Do you feel stuck in repeating patterns of anxiety or avoidance?

If so, you are not alone. It’s been clear for a while now that an increasing number of people of all genders and identities have been increasingly disillusioned and discouraged by the challenges unique in modern dating. The paradoxically isolating impact of dating apps and technology, clash of cultural and family pressures, and shifting expectations around gender roles and relationships can leave us questioning ourselves, repeating painful patterns, and feeling more frustrated than hopeful.

I offer counseling tailored for individuals who want support in navigating the modern dating world with greater clarity, intention, and confidence.

Dating and relationship readiness counseling may be a good fit if you are looking to:

  • Identify and shift unhelpful relationship patterns

  • Build confidence in expressing your needs and boundaries

  • Explore how cultural, family, or identity factors influence your approach to dating and relationship

  • Work through fears of rejection, intimacy, and/or vulnerability

  • Clarify what you truly want in a partner and in a relationship

  • Experience connection, values-alignment, and fulfillment in your life, with and without a partner

With the right support, the dating process can become a valuable part of your journey in of itself towards healing, growth, and a more connected and thriving life.

Whether you are:

  • just beginning to date,

  • returning to dating after a breakup or divorce, or

  • wanting to approach relationships with more care and intentionality,

I aim to help you feel supported, grounded, and empowered—ready to step into dating with greater clarity, self-trust, and joy.
