After planning her own wedding in 2015, Landis became fascinated with the emotional experience that arises during the wedding planning process. She began to explore this issue with colleagues and friends and found that, for most, even when it is a joyful experience, it could still prove to be a uniquely stressful time, often setting the scene for heightened emotion, pressure, and expectation in a relatively short period of time. She found that most stressors that come up during wedding planning are the same stressors that bring most people to therapy at other points in their lives, but wedding planning seemed to bring out many of these issues at once!

In 2018, Landis founded AisleTalk, the first therapy and coaching practice devoted to helping engaged people navigate stress as they plan their wedding and look toward marriage. AisleTalk is rooted in the belief that wedding planning is not always as glamorous as it seems. At its core, getting married is a major life transition, marked with stress and change, identity development, forced collaboration, expectations versus reality, and a lot of attention. Some people meet this challenge with eagerness and excitement. Others find it overwhelming and paralyzing.

After eight years of honing this specialty, Landis is passionate about helping clients through the stress they’re experiencing. She sees this time as being ripe for developing skills to navigate and cope with these stressors in a way that will set a client up for a happy, healthy, and successful marriage. An opportunity to create calm in chaos; to help individual partners ground themselves in enduring partnership
For her innovative work in the area of wedding therapy, Landis has been quoted as an expert source in numerous media publications, including BRIDES, TIME Magazine, The New York Times, The New York Post, and several others; and served as an inaugural member on the BRIDES Review board a Relationship and Mental Health Expert​ for her expertise in the field.

Landis is passionate about treating individuals and couples who want to work on their relationships and brings to her work over ten years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist. Prior to founding AisleTalk, she held clinical roles in a variety of settings including schools, community mental health clinics, eating disorder centers, crisis shelters, and higher education. She has extensive experience working with adults, children, couples and families coping with a range of emotional concerns, with special interests in supporting folks dealing with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, couple and family strain, career and academic stress, birth trauma, transition to parenthood, parenting children with special needs, concerns related to sexuality and gender identity, self-esteem, disordered eating, and adult ADHD.

Landis’s therapeutic style is warm, nonjudgmental, client-centered, and goal-focused. Knowing that a strong therapeutic relationship can be responsible for 80% of successful client outcomes, that is where she starts working toward your goals: building a trusting, collaborative relationship, rooted in the client’s strengths. From there, she integrates techniques of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, emotionally-focused couples therapy (EFT), mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic therapy based on each client’s unique needs and preferences. Landis appreciates and incorporates honest feedback throughout the therapeutic process to make it the most meaningful it can be for each client who walks through her door.

Landis manages AisleTalk remotely from Atlanta, Georgia, where she relocated with her own family in 2020. ​​When she’s not working, she’s the boy-mom of two toddlers and two rescue pups; sharing wrangling duties and learning about love and life with her partner of fifteen years. Peak happiness includes: a sunny day, an oat milk latte, a new eatery, a long walk, and fewer than two tantrums.

As a therapist, she strives to create a space that is warm, accepting, and trauma-informed for all clients. Farzana is fascinated by how our family relationships can impact our romantic relationships, friendships, and our sense of self in the world. She makes an effort to collaborate with clients to get an understanding of how their identities have been shaped by their environments and encourages unlearning as part of growth. 

Farzana’s experiences as a child of immigrant parents and as a South Asian woman of color provide her with the ability to recognize why exploring our early attachments are so important in the therapeutic work, and especially, during the time of wedding planning and transition to marriage. Farzana integrates techniques from psychodynamic therapy, several attachment-based approaches, multicultural counseling, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Additionally, she received training in the Gottman Method Level One and is a certified PREPARE/ENRICH premarital and marital counselor for couples.
