EFT
Amber Behrouzvaziri, Attachment & Relationships
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
***Waitlist for new clients. You long for connection and intimacy, yet find yourself pulling back out of fear of losing yourself, being hurt, or repeating past painful relationship experiences. You want companionship that enhances your life and honors who you are, not relationships that require self-betrayal, overfunctioning, or twisting yourself into a pretzel to keep the peace.
I work with clients who are navigating the tension between closeness and independence. Together, we explore how to remain grounded in yourself while opening to meaningful connection. My approach supports you in gently examining the protective patterns that once helped you survive but may now be limiting intimacy, so you can relate from a place of greater self-trust, discernment, and emotional clarity.
As an attachment-based therapist, I help clients understand how early experiences and past relationships continue to shape how they show up in romantic connections today. I also integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR to support clients in processing relational trauma and strengthening their capacity to lean into connection while also knowing when it is wise to set boundaries or step away.

Jennifer Pudlo Therapy & Wellness Consulting
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Seeking therapy is a courageous first step, and I know how important it is to find someone you feel comfortable trusting. My hope is that from our very first conversation, you'll experience a space where you can exhale, feel genuinely heard, and know that you don't have to carry life's challenges alone.
I believe meaningful change happens within the safety of a trusting therapeutic relationship. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, combining evidence-based practices with deep respect for your unique story, strengths, and values. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we'll work together to understand the patterns that have shaped your experiences and discover new ways of responding that promote lasting healing and growth.
I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, betrayal and infidelity, trauma, infertility, postpartum challenges, perimenopause, grief, body image concerns, and major life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to change, therapy can provide a place to gain clarity, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with yourself and the people who matter most.
Clients often tell me they appreciate having a therapist who is both compassionate and practical—someone who offers thoughtful guidance while creating space for reflection, insight, and meaningful change. My goal is not to tell you how to live your life, but to walk alongside you as you discover your own path toward greater peace, confidence, and connection.
If you're considering therapy, I invite you to reach out. Finding the right therapist matters, and I would be honored to learn more about your story, answer your questions, and help you determine whether we're a good fit. Even if you're unsure where to begin, you don't have to have it all figured out before taking that first step.

South Bend is an Indiana city historically defined by the Studebaker automobile company—which closed in 1963, leaving a significant deindustrialization legacy—and by the University of Notre Dame, whose global prestige and Catholic intellectual tradition sit just outside the city limits in an unusual town-gown relationship, and the city gained wider attention when its mayor Pete Buttigieg ran for president, reflecting an ongoing effort to position South Bend as a model for revitalizing Midwestern post-industrial cities. The city has a significant Black community that has faced longstanding disparities in economic opportunity, and the mental health landscape is marked by racial stress alongside the general challenges of economic revitalization. Beacon Health System provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves the university-adjacent and professional communities. Common therapy concerns include racial identity and systemic stress, economic anxiety and community transition, Notre Dame student mental health, faith and Catholic identity, and the emotional complexity of a city working to define itself beyond the stories of what it has lost.
