Dating therapy
Dating therapy and Dating coaching support for single Millennial and Gen Z women is designed to help you relax, gain confidence, and trust yourself in the dating process, so that you can find the love you want and keep the love you find.
Dating in New York these days is no joke! If dating feels exhausting, confusing, or emotionally draining, you are not alone. So many single women come to therapy feeling anxious, burnt out, discouraged, or stuck in the same patterns, no matter how hard they have tried to change.
Dating therapy supports women who feel overwhelmed by modern dating, stuck in repeating patterns, or unsure why dating feels so emotionally exhausting despite effort and self-awareness. In NYC’s fast-paced dating culture, many high-achieving women struggle with dating anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, and inconsistent emotional availability. Dating therapy blends the depth of psychotherapy with the practical support many people associate with dating coaching, helping you build healthy, secure love from the inside out.
Hey, I’m Rebecca!
I specialize in Dating therapy for single Millennial and Gen Z women, ages 22-4,4 who want to feel calmer, more confident, and more grounded while dating, and who want to stop repeating relationships that don’t meet their needs. I have witnessed remarkable transformations in Dating therapy clients in as little as two sessions, especially once we identify the pattern and begin working with the nervous system.
For over a decade, I’ve helped women break toxic patterns, understand their attachment styles, heal their nervous systems, and build relationships that truly feel good. I grew up on Disney movies, romantic comedies, and TV sitcoms, which led me to believe that love was supposed to be intoxicating but also easy. But like many women, I learned the hard way that dating…especially in NYC, can feel overwhelming, confusing, and emotionally draining. This is why I’m so passionate about helping single Millennial and Gen Z women across New York and Florida, including clients on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, attract and keep emotionally secure, attached love.
