Another day, another argument about “something”…
Whether it’s a “big something” or a “small something,” you and your partner haven’t been on the same page for a while now.
“I’m always the one adjusting my schedule to make sure the kids get where they need to be. Why aren’t you around to help out more?”
“When are we going to make time for us? Your work, your friends, your social calendar always take priority over our relationship.”
You’re both pulled in so many directions; so when the doubts, frustration, and stress begin to mount, you don’t know how to handle them.
Are you making time to improve your relationship?
Or do you just continue to avoid the problems and avoid each other?
When it comes to relationships and marriages, avoidance doesn’t help anything – it makes those challenges worse.
You’re not in this relationship alone. It takes two to make relationship work and last.
Just imagine the healing that can come if you take time to improve your relationship… better understanding of your partner or spouse, fewer arguments that escalate to screaming matches and words of regret, more peace and harmony not just within your relationship or marriage, but within your home as a family unit.
It’s time for restoration in your relationship.
There are some obstacles and challenges that couples face that can’t be solved on their own.
Reaching out for help and attending Couples Therapy can provide you and your partner the space to bring healing to a fractured or troubled relationship.
I’m here and ready to help you bring restoration in your relationship.
It is common for couples to arrive to their session with high distress, migrating to separate seats.
Therapy provides an environment of acceptance and encouragement for you both. By trying to find a balance of needs for each, partners hopefully feel equally valued and supported.
While couples are encouraged to communicate the unresolved situations that are troubling, therapy directs their focus more to the underlying coping skills, to process coping skills that will be more effective over time.
Couples are provided insight into specific behaviors that could contribute to the rift in their relationship. For example, routinely giving your spouse a to-do list or complaining about their behavior over text causes your spouse to become frustrated, shut down, or not even want to be in the space as you.
But think back to the earlier days in your relationship or marriage… maybe you exchanged loving texts, helped more around the house so that your spouse didn’t feel alone in everything. Think of what those gestures meant. You can learn how to change those behaviors and quickly improve communication and your relationship.
After you and your partner gain insight into your behaviors and personalities, you develop more tolerance and compassion for each other. With that understanding, both partners develop a stronger sense of relationship safety overall.
Harmony for your relationship is within reach.
Letting someone into your challenges can be scary. It can maybe make you feel as if you’ve failed somewhere along the way.
But taking the first step and reaching out for help can make all the difference. Don’t spend another minute at odds with your partner. It’s time you both enjoyed a happier and healthier relationship.
