We have all had many challenges in the relationships in our lives. Some of the most difficult come from our intimate partnerships. Maybe you don’t feel heard or understood. Maybe it seems like you’re an outsider in your family or that you do all the work around the house. Has your relationship experienced a betrayal? That is such a painful experience. Is your marriage on the verge of ending? Have you forgotten how to have fun together? Just know that there is hope. These are all common problems in many relationships. Oftentimes they really represent other deeper, underlying issues. There are ways to heal and tools to use to get through these tough times and make your relationship thrive like never before. My goal is for you to be satisfied and feel safe with your significant other. To feel like you can grow and become the best version of you with the person you’ve chosen to live life with. Oftentimes just having a 3rd party to help navigate the difficulties makes the biggest difference. We will get started with a couples assessment, then individual assessments and then move to treatment planning and education. There are some relationship tests you’ll need to take and I also have specific teaching and video homework assignments to help you apply what you’re learning in therapy. Now is the time to act and get started on a new way of being a couple. Being happy and living your best life with your partner is within reach. I hope you’ll make that call today.
Did you know that 69% of our problems in relationships are perpetual and only 31% are solvable? That makes having discussion around those perpetual issues really important since they’re going to be around for a really long time. Another important statistic is that for every one negative that happens in a relationship, you need 5 positives to get you back to baseline. That’s right! 5 Positives! You better get working on making some effective repairs. We’ve all heard that we shouldn’t complain. That’s actually not true. It’s best to complain early and often in a relationship. You’re just developing a better road map for a more successful relationship. It’s all in how you complain. We must do it keeping the focus on ourselves and not making our partner feel like there is something wrong with them. These are just a few of the things that I can help you learn to improve your relationship. There are so many little factors that can make a tremendous difference in helping you survive a difficult time and thrive as you move through time with your beloved partner. It will be worth your while and time well spent. Give me a call and let’s get started.
