Are you thinking about moving in together with our partner? I wrote a new blog that could help you!

It is such an exciting step, but it can also bring up a lot: money stress, different expectations, fears about commitment, and even old attachment wounds.

Before signing a lease, I encourage couples to have a few honest conversations about what living together will really look like. Here, I wrote about the questions you need to ask before moving in together in New York city.

In a city that moves fast and leaves little room for closure, being ghosted can feel especially brutal. One day, you are sharing voice notes, making plans for a drink, or talking every day. Then suddenly, nothing.

Ghosting can leave you feeling anxious, rejected, and stuck replaying every interaction as you try to understand what changed. In this blog, I explore why people ghost, how it can affect your self worth and nervous system, and how to move forward without abandoning yourself while searching for answers.

Ghosted in NYC and still obsessing over it? This new blog explores why ghosting can feel so painful, why your mind keeps replaying the same questions, and what actually helps when you are trying to move on.

If you have ever found yourself overthinking texts, rereading messages, or wondering what you did wrong, you are not alone. Ghosting can stir up a lot more than just disappointment. It can activate shame, uncertainty, and old attachment wounds that make it hard to let go.

S*x and desire in long term relationships rarely match the picture we see on social media. In our new blog, we look at what really happens in therapy with women and couples who are struggling with low libido, mismatched desire, taboo fantasies and open relationship questions. A recent inquiry from a VICE journalist about the more counterintuitive sides of intimacy helped inspire this piece!
If your relationship looks fine from the outside but feels off inside, you are not alone. Read the blog, and if it resonates, contact us to schedule a brief phone consultation and see whether our team can help.

A couples therapist reveals the real patterns around s*x, desire, and intimacy she sees in couples therapy every week — from mismatched desire to taboo fantasies to why long-term love and eroticism pull in opposite directions.

Navigating a complicated relationship with your parents? You're not alone. I recently had the honor of contributing to Everyday Health on this exact topic. Because the parent-child relationship doesn't end when you become an adult, it transforms. And that transformation? It's messy, vulnerable, and sometimes really hard.

Whether you're feeling misunderstood, stuck in old patterns, or just trying to build something healthier with your family, this one's for you 💫

So many of our clients say the same thing: “I talk to people all day, but I still feel disconnected.” Our latest blog is all about that gap between small talk communication and real connection, and how to gently bridge it.
