When it comes to self-healing and personal development, it's easy to get trapped in the belief that the work must be done in a vacuum-- that in order for it to be "self-healing" and "self-development" it must be done alone; that you shouldn't be in partnership until you've done all the work on yourself. So what's love got to do with it?

Every relationship, no matter how long or what transpires, is a lesson. Whether romantic or platonic, familial or acquaintance, every relationship in which we find ourselves offers an opportunity to notice our relational patterns, how we form our bonds and connections, and brings light to all our complex layers that individual work can't reveal.

Join me and my dear friend and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Julia Perretta as we explore the topics of attachment styles, personal development through partnership, beliefs around the "ideal" relationship, "failed relationships," the motivation behind being in relationship, codependency and its root cause, and so much more.

Julia specializes in working with couples and individuals utilizing somatic and attachment-informed approaches. She encourages healing through authentic embodiment, connection, humor, love and engagement with the things that bring you joy. She is also a certified yoga and meditation teacher and shares these practices with her community and clients.
