Are You Longing for Your Relationship to Change?
If you are feeling lonely, in pain and isolated, even when you are with a partner, or you are longing to feel more connected and happy in your relationship, it may be time to do something different. Couples tell me they have tried many things in an effort to get back to where they can communicate, where they don't get stuck in a pattern of arguing and withdrawing and avoiding each other or the issues. Things may get better for awhile, and then it happens again, another argument, or a day of not talking, or just feeling alone, unheard, or abandoned.
It can feel harder and harder to reach out to let your partner know you are feeling alone and in pain. You may want your partner to know that you long for things to be different, but you may fear how your partner will respond if you reach out, or that they will not respond at all.
Many couples struggle to make positive and lasting change in their relationships, or even communicate about how they feel about their future together. If you have tried, but can't find a way to change things for the better, to communicate better, to share about your commitment to the relationship, or to get back to the relationship you long for, it may be helpful to seek some support. In couples therapy, I use my experience, education, expertise and acceptance to support and guide couples as they explore and share what it is they want from their relationships and work toward achieving those goals.
