You thought this was going to be the happiest time of your life

But it’s one of the hardest.  

You're moody.  Anxious. Stressed.

You feel a lot of anguish. 

You’re over-analyzing every interaction with your fiance.  

You can't tell anybody, because you don't want to give them a bad impression of your relationship.

You fantasize about calling off your wedding, just to make the pain go away.

You can't shake the negativity

You’re hyper-critical of your fiancé.  

You’re sad.

You're anxious.  

You're scared that you’re the only bride that feels this way.

What you need is information

About the normal psychological processes going on within you right now.

You're in the midst of a major transition in your identity.  

F
rom single woman to married woman.  

From daughter to wife.

These identity changes can make you feel anxious, sad, scared, and angry. 

Feelings you DID NOT expect to feel during your engagement.

Frankly, it kind of sucks.

If you're sick of feeling upset...

If you’re willing to roll up your sleeves,

To be curious about what's really going on for you,

To do a little emotional digging with me,

To try some new tools, techniques and mindsets...

If you are

25+ years old

Analytical by profession (lawyer, scientist, tech, marketing etc.)

Analytical by personality (have a hard time making decisions -- big and small)

We'd work well together.

Brides that have the most success with me are in their mid-20s-50s, who are analytical and reflective, open to new ideas, eager to do the work to feel better.


If this sounds like you.....Let me help.

You deserve to look forward to your wedding day and marriage with excitement and optimism.

Let's meet for a free 15-minute video consultation. 

You'll soon feel more calm, clarity, and happiness.

"I've been to several therapists, and Allison is unquestionably the best: the most insightful,
the most non-judgmental, and the most solution-oriented.  She is the only therapist I've felt comfortable enough to be really honest with. 

Allison has been a safe harbor and a voice of reason during my transition to 'bride.' Don't hesitate to contact her. Ultimately, the peace of mind you'll feel when you know you've made the right decision is well worth the investment in yourself. "- R.M.
