[Book dating therapy](https://www.therapyportal.com/p/curatempos/) Dating can feel like guesswork — the same patterns, the same disappointments, a lot of effort with little clarity. Dating Therapy is a place to slow that down. Working from attachment theory, we look at how you bond, the stories that shape who you're drawn to, and the habits that keep the right partner at arm's length. The goal isn't just to date more — it's to date with intention and find the partner who makes life bigger. You'll leave with a clearer sense of what you're looking for, why past relationships went the way they did, and the skills to build something lasting. Who this is for - Singles ready to date with intention - Adults noticing repeating relational patterns - Anyone doing attachment-focused relational work FAQ ## Common questions ### Is this coaching or therapy? It's clinical therapy — attachment-focused psychotherapy, not dating coaching. ### Do I need to be actively dating? No. Some clients begin before dating to understand their patterns first. ### How long does the work take? It varies with what surfaces; many clients work weekly for several months. ## Ready to begin? Start with a complimentary 15-minute consultation.
