Therapy in Florida for navigating entering marriage.
so, you’re getting married
Marriage is often described as joyful, exciting, and full of love—and it can be. But it’s also one of the most emotionally complex transitions you’ll go through.
Planning a wedding alone can bring up anxiety, people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, and decision fatigue. Add in family dynamics—old roles, unspoken expectations, unresolved tensions—and it’s no wonder this season can feel overwhelming.
On the outside, you might look like you’re managing it all. But inside, you may feel anxious, conflicted, or even a little lost.
YOU’RE CARRYING A LOT.
Balancing your needs with your partner’s, your families’, and everyone’s expectations can leave you quietly wondering: “Is it okay that this feels so hard?” If that sounds familiar—you’re not alone.
If this resonates with you…
You’re not broken.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
Therapy can be the space where you finally exhale.
Getting married can be a stressful life transition.
Marriage isn’t just a milestone—it’s a deep, sometimes disorienting shift in how you relate to yourself and others. Even when you love your partner deeply, the stress of wedding planning, shifting family dynamics, and stepping into a new identity can bring up big emotions.
Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. It means you’re human—and you’re navigating one of the most layered transitions of your life.

The stress of marriage shows up in your body, emotions, and relationships. You might notice anxiety, exhaustion, or difficulty sleeping. You may feel tension with your partner, guilt with your family, or constant self-doubt. Therapy helps you name what’s happening, understand why it feels so heavy, and find steadier ways to move through it.

Yes. Marriage brings up big shifts—identity, family, roles, expectations. Feeling anxious or conflicted doesn’t mean your relationship is doomed; it means you’re human. Therapy helps you process these feelings and move forward with more clarity and confidence.

My Approach to Emerging Adulthood Therapy for Women in Florida
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
I’m not the kind of therapist who just tells you to “enjoy the moment.” I’ll meet you where you are—whether you’re overwhelmed by wedding planning, navigating family conflict, or simply unsure of how to hold all of your emotions at once.
Some sessions are practical—focused on boundaries, stress, or relationship tools. Others are deeper—exploring family patterns, identity, or the fears stirred up by this transition. This isn’t one-size-fits-all therapy. I adapt to your needs, your pace, and your goals.
This isn’t one-size-fits-all therapy. This is deeply personalized work.
an integrative, relational approach to therapy for young adults in Florida:
-
I use a relational, integrative approach to therapy. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment theory, somatic awareness, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-based strategies. This blend helps you stay grounded in the present while making sense of the deeper family or emotional patterns being activated.
-
Therapy is a partnership—you lead, I guide. We’ll work on both the immediate stressors (planning, family tension, doubts) and the bigger picture (identity, self-trust, long-term relationship health).
-
At the core of this work is helping you build a steady, confident foundation for your future. Over time, you may notice:
Relief from emotional pressure and perfectionism
Clarity around your needs, values, and boundaries
A deeper emotional connection with your partner
More grounded responses to family dynamics
The confidence to move forward with presence—not just performance
