Relationship Concerns
As we are wired for connection and belonging, the quality and health of our relationships are critical to the stability, vitality and satisfaction we tend to experience in our lives. Relationship difficulties tend to be one of the most common concerns clients present with as relationships affect every part of an individual’s life and permeate nearly every psychological problem, from depression to parenting.
Relational functioning and skill-building are often central to the work of therapy. That often involves exploring relationship patterns that can otherwise lead to feelings of defeat, hurt and resentment. Individuals or couples can expect to gain greater clarity around the reasons for discord in a relationship and to be supported in building healthier relationship habits that can help restore trust, safety and effective communication.
In addition to developing new strategies for communication to strengthen the relationship, clients can also expect to learn lifelong skills to listen and communicate effectively, compromise without feelings of defeat, and live complete, entwined lives.
