Therapy for Relationship Issues
Almost everyone talks about relationships in their individual therapy.
Our relationships are great entry points into:
Personal growth
Healing old wounds
Overcoming defenses
Understanding issues from our family of origin
Exploring the archetypes we enact with others
Better understanding our roles in conflict
Improving communication
Creating more intimacy and spark
Whether you’re currently single, dating, in a relationship, or navigating a tough breakup, therapy is helpful. I offer more than support and a third party perspective. You will discover helpful tools and develop a framework for better communication, getting your needs met, and for overcoming challenges. Some common issues individuals seek support with are:
Coping with tough breakups
Processing a past relationship(s) and integrating the experience into your current self
Exploring how communication impacts long-term desire and spark
Understanding your relationship patterns such as codependency, enmeshment, boundaries, and trauma-bonding
Attachment styles, such as avoidant and anxious attachments
Commitment and intimacy issues
Defensive coping patterns that inhibit healthy vulnerability and intimacy
Navigating dating, intuition, and societal pressures
Self-esteem and building self-compassion
Trusting after sexual and emotional betrayal
Exploring shadow self
Family of origin
No matter where you are in pursuing your relationship goals, therapy can provide individual support when you are ready. Schedule a free consultation with me to learn if therapy can help.
