From a psychodynamic perspective, a current crisis often triggers unhealed wounds from previous experiences of loss, divorce, or repeated childhood separations. If you were also forced into early parentification—carrying adult responsibilities or managing caregiver emotions too soon—your own grief was likely pushed aside. This causes current relationship vulnerabilities to feel completely overwhelming and unsafe.

The patterns you built to protect yourself took years to form; our goal is to understand them with patience, without rushing the pace. Using evidence-based medication, psychotherapy, or a combination of both, we work together to:

• Work through and make sense of past losses that you were never previously free to express

• Transform ingrained patterns and habits that compel you to push love or care away

• Figure out what you need to create stable, genuinely fulfilling relationships
