The dating experience has changed a lot in the last five to ten years. Thanks to more intention around relationships and mental health, humans are protecting themselves from the unhealthy relationship patterns that are prevalent around them. We're more individualistic and therefore more set in our lifestyles. With so many options thanks for online dating and dating apps, decisions can feel easier yet also harder.
If you have an open heart and truly want a partner but keep coming up empty, you're not alone, and there's nothing wrong with you.
Many of us are also healing and discovering ourselves at different rates, which can make finding a good match feel exhausting. If you have an open heart and truly want a partner but keep coming up empty, you're not alone, and there's nothing wrong with you. Or perhaps you are not ready to open your heart to another in which we can put the focus on developing self-compassion, as well as additional ways to cultivate connection, security, and happiness.
In therapy, we'll explore your patterns, your needs, and your relationship with yourself, so you can navigate life and community with more clarity and less burnout. The goal isn't to push you toward a relationship but to help you find the right balance between openness and self-protection.
