Limerence—that all-consuming obsession—can leave you feeling powerless and emotionally exhausted. You may find yourself constantly thinking about someone, analyzing every interaction, hoping for reciprocation that may never come. I specialize in helping individuals understand and overcome limerent patterns. We will explore how early experiences create anxious and avoidant attachments and the repetitive cycles that keep you stuck in painful, unfulfilling dynamics that drain your energy and self-worth.

I take a contemporary psychoanalytic approach to limerence, helping you understand the deeper emotional needs driving your obsessive thoughts. You'll develop insight into your limerent patterns and learn to recognize triggers before they overwhelm you.

Our work together will help you have healthier relationships, develop genuine self-worth independent of romantic validation, and create space for healing old attachment wounds. Click on the link to my website to learn more...

I'm a psychoanalytically-trained psychotherapist who also provides consulting and psychoeducation for limerence. Whether you're just finding out that what you're dealing with is called limerence, or you're well versed in limerence but can't find a therapist who has heard of it, I can help you with the language, insights, and a springboard for coping on your own or in therapy.
