Therapy for Relationship Challenges

Things are good, but could they be better?

We bicker – a lot. But all couples do that, don’t they?

It’s okay if we have different interests. That’s what keeps things exciting, right?

We haven’t been able to spend much time together, lately. But that’s just work stuff. It will pass, won’t it?

My partner and my family don’t get along. But that happens all the time, doesn’t it?

Relationships can get off track easily if you don’t pay attention.

But for the right relationship, the effort to keep it on track is more than worth it.

But how do we get back on track?

Therapy can give you a place to process the ups and downs of being in a relationship in an objective place.

If there’s conflict, you’ll gain insight on what’s really happening. Why was it such a big deal when you stayed late at work that one night? What does it mean that you bickered this morning over forgetting to pick up more coffee?

So much of what happens in a romantic relationship happens beneath the surface.

You attach meanings to your partner’s actions and vice versa. When you’re in the middle of the relationship, it can be hard to have an objective perspective to understand what those meanings are.

Therapy can help you understand what’s really going on.

I can help you see both sides.

Together, we’ll come to understand why your relationship doesn’t feel the same anymore.

We’ll devise ways for you two to feel important to one another again.

Using a combination of understanding the emotions behind yours and your partner’s behaviors, I’ll provide insight and practical skills to help you convey what you want to say.

I work with a concept in psychology called attachment, which basically means that I understand the emotion behind an action and how it relates to your fundamental needs to feel accepted and worthwhile.

You can be open and honest with me.

You’ll feel renewed and encouraged walking out of session with a game plan.

When your relationship feels challenging, having someone on your side who gets where you’re coming from and who can help you find the words to say is invaluable.

Being in a supportive relationship is empowering.

Don’t miss out…

…on the opportunity to regain that connection with your partner.

You want to support each other, and you can.

You can heal old wounds.

You can rediscover that joy and intimacy with your partner.

Start getting back on track – you may be closer than you think.
