You thought you were moving toward a future together. Now, suddenly, it’s all gone.
Your friends and family mean well. They've said "you can do better" and "it's their loss" and all the other things you’re supposed to say—and you love them for it. But the pep talks can only go so far.
You might still be showing up to work and answering texts—because you don't want to make your pain anyone else's problem. So you go through the motions and pretend you’re fine even though you're absolutely not fine.
Really, there’s a giant hole in the center of your chest that won’t go away, no matter how much time passes. You’ve forgotten how to eat (or you’re eating too much), how to sleep, how to brush your teeth. If you manage to shower, your thoughts spiral until you’re doubled over, crying with shampoo in your hair.
You pick up your phone to text the person who was always there for you and realize—you can’t.
Maybe…
You're still trying to figure out what even happened. You replay your conversations in your head thinking if you can just understand what went wrong, maybe you can stop thinking about it so much.
You miss them—even though you’re hurt or you know the relationship wasn't right. And you’re so confused by everything you’re feeling all at once.
You’re checking their Instagram on repeat. You know you shouldn’t, but here you are, refreshing their profile, terrified of the day you see them post a picture with someone new.
You dread returning to the apps, awkward dates, and "hey" messages that go nowhere. But everyone else is moving forward and you're back at the beginning, wondering if your window to find someone is closing.
You know you need to cut contact with them. You know that. And you also can't quite get yourself to do it—because as much as it hurts, letting go completely feels impossible.
You’re terrified of getting back out there even though people keep telling you that it’s time. You never want to feel this way again, but you worry your next relationship will lead you right back here—so why even try?
Right now, it might feel like your life is over—but with every end is the opportunity to start again.
We’re here to help you find your new beginning.
OUR APPROACH
We won’t rush you. It’s going to take some time for you to feel like a person again. This is a hard thing to go through. It’s so fucking hard. You can say that here—it’s allowed.
You can take the space you need to process the relationship and say all the things you’ve been wanting to say (or scream! Let it out, girl!)
So you know you’re not alone, we sit in the bullshit with you—because we’re not afraid to get our hands dirty. We'll help you sort through your feelings and challenge the beliefs about your value and worth. And then we need to turn our attention to what comes next. We’re going to help you remember who you are as a single woman and decide what you want out of your next relationship (when you’re ready for one).
We’ll address the confusing thoughts and the patterns you lean on that may not be working for you. We want you to confidently re-enter the world as someone who knows what she deserves—so you can say “yes” to what’s right for you and “no” to what isn’t.
We believe you deserve as much love as you give to others. We’re on your side 100%.
Breakup recovery therapy can help you…
Stop waiting for closure that was never going to come from them. You’re able to give closure to yourself by actually understanding what happened and what it means for you.
Get through a day without thoughts of them swirling around in your head. Eventually you realize you barely think about them at all.
Know your worth in a way that doesn't depend on whether or not someone chooses you.
See your unhelpful relationship patterns clearly so you stop ending up in the same place with different people.
Go back into the dating world, trust yourself to choose people who deserve you, and catch red flags before you're already attached to someone.
Get clear on what a healthy relationship looks like for you—what you need, what you won't negotiate on, and what you've been accepting that you don't have to anymore.
YOU’RE NOT GOING TO FEEL THIS WAY FOREVER
On the other side of this is a woman who knows who she is and what she’s worth. Let’s set her free together.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
It depends on the relationship, how long you were together, how attached you were, and how much of your life you'd built around this person. There’s no timeline for grieving a relationship and we won’t expect you to follow one. Your therapy sessions will go at your own pace of healing, with gentle nudging as needed to help you face the tough stuff that might be holding you back.
-
Yes. Especially when you're not just grieving a person—you're grieving a future and maybe even an identity. That's a significant loss, and it takes time that doesn't follow a schedule. If you're still struggling, that doesn't mean something is wrong with you. It means you're human, and you probably need more support than you've been giving yourself.
-
Yes. Therapy gives you a space to sit with those feelings honestly—without judgment—and start to understand them in a way that helps you move forward.
-
Yes, this is exactly what we do. Getting over the breakup is one part of the work. Understanding what led you there in the first place is the part that changes things going forward. We'll help you identify the patterns, understand where they came from, and go into your next relationship with a clarity and confidence you didn't have before. .
-
Every therapist on our team is a master's level registered social worker with specialized training in relationships, attachment, and the patterns that tend to show up in the aftermath of a breakup.
Beyond the credentials, this is our lane. We work with women in their 20s and 30s navigating heartbreak, relationship anxiety, and the fear of repeating the same patterns. We've sat with a lot of women who felt exactly the way you do right now. And we've watched them come out the other side. You're not going to spend half your session explaining feelings we already get.
