Heal yourself in your relationship

Your relationship doesn’t give you the happiness and fulfillment that it used to

Relationship problems can be exhausting. You feel like you’re giving your part but continue to experience problems. Maybe you feel like you’re walking on eggshells. Or you feel like you can’t express yourself in your relationship without a strong reaction from the other person. Perhaps it’s that you feel like you’re constantly giving in this relationship without receiving the same in return. This is exhausting and draining, and you don’t know how long you can continue doing this. You feel like you’re on a roller coaster and you want to get off. Whether the cause of the problem is clear or not, you know something needs to change.

Being in a difficult relationship leads to increased stress, which contributes to problems with sleeping, health issues and decreases overall joy in life. It’s hard to take care of day-to-day tasks like work, home tasks and other responsibilities when you feel so drained by the problems in your relationship. Sometimes, having stress in one relationship can leak into other relationships where previous stress was low or nonexistent. The stress of this relationship can also contribute to emotional and mood problems such as having increased irritability, sadness, worry, anger and many others.

How individual therapy can help your relationship.

Therapy can help you feel like you have regained control in your life. You will learn to recognize your needs and find ways of expressing them while maintaining loyalty to who you are. Therapy can help you gain a sense of confidence that will lead you to making decisions that are for your highest good. Therapy can also help you improve all of your relationships, current and future. It helps you learn to set foundations for more fulfilling relationships in the future.

I utilize a client-centered approach in therapy where the client is the expert in their life and in making their own choices. I work to build a strong relationship with each client so that we have a safe therapeutic space necessary for meaningful change. In this process, we work together, as a team. to help you find yourself and have a more joyful life.
