Curated Matches. Real Connection. No Algorithms.

Intentionality.

Modern dating can feel overwhelming, impersonal, and exhausting. If you are tired of swiping, ghosting, or investing time in mismatched dates, you are not alone.

Matchmaking by Dr. Lida is designed for discerning individuals who want thoughtful, personalized introductions and are serious about finding a long-term partner. I bring a culturally attuned, insight-driven approach to the matchmaking process and specialize in working with accomplished professionals from a range of fields — including executives, entrepreneurs, physicians, attorneys, academics, creatives, and professional neurodivergent individuals. In addition, I work with a diverse range of singles, including young singles who are tired of swiping and the online dating scene, divorced professionals, single parents, and those re-entering the dating world with fresh intentions. My practice is committed to offering a supportive, inclusive, and highly personalized experience for every client.

“The personal attention blew me away. Dr. Lida didn’t just throw out matches — she actually listened, asked thoughtful questions, and helped me get clear on my non-negotiables and blind spots. I felt seen, supported, and — for the first time — hopeful about dating again.”

How Does Matchmaking Work

  • This is a high-touch, boutique matchmaking service that prioritizes depth, intention, and connection. Every introduction is made with care and guided by real conversations—not algorithms or surface-level filters.

    The Process:

    Match Map Discovery Call – A private one-on-one session to explore your dating goals, values, and whether this service is the right fit for you.

    The Dating Blueprint – A proprietary framework developed from years of experience working with relationship dynamics and personal insight. This curated conversation explores your patterns, preferences, and partnership goals—laying the foundation for meaningful, aligned matches. It is a thoughtful, strategic start to a highly personalized matchmaking experience.

    Curated Introductions – Introductions may come from my vetted Singles Database, along with strategic outreach, targeted scouting, and professional networking. Each match is hand-selected through a refined and intentional process—centered on compatibility, shared values, and meaningful relationship potential. No algorithms are used—every introduction is guided by professional insight, informed intuition, and a deep understanding of modern relationships.

    Post-Date Feedback & Guidance – After each introduction, I offer space for feedback and provide personalized support to help you reflect, realign, and move forward.

What Makes This Different

  • A Personalized Experience – I work with a limited number of clients to ensure every match is made with care and intention.

    Inclusive and Culturally Attuned – I serve individuals from all backgrounds and am committed to offering a supportive, inclusive experience that honors your identity and values.

    Professionally Guided – I draw on my background as a Relationship and Sex Therapist to bring emotional insight, clarity, and intention to the matchmaking process. This is like a deep dive into better understanding you and your wants—not a therapy session.

    Confidential Match Network – Your introductions come from a trusted, growing, and private network—along with my own open Database. Each individual is thoughtfully screened to ensure alignment with the values and intentions of this service.

Let’s Redefine How You Date

Drawing on my background as a Relationship and Sex Therapist, I offer a matchmaking experience that is both thoughtful and intentional. Whether you are seeking a meaningful partnership or simply looking for more structure and clarity in your dating life, I am here to guide you forward—with insight, care, and a focus on what truly aligns. While this is not therapy, my approach is informed by years of supporting individuals in navigating love, intimacy, and connection with intention.

Matchmaking services are separate from any clinical or therapeutic services I offer. Participation in this program does not establish a therapist-client relationship and is not a substitute for mental health treatment or therapy.
