Intimate relationships could be difficult to maintain and understand. Sometimes we are left confused and hurt by the behaviors and words of others. Our responses to these unfortunate behaviors might create a negative reaction which could worsen the feelings of despair. Having a personal psychotherapist with whom to explore some of these problems could be very rewarding and healing. Finding assertive ways to express our emotions using a win/win approach might assist in the healing of those injuries. Anxiety, depression and interpersonal conflict could be minimized or eliminated with the appropriate interventions.
As a certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist, (DBT) I focus on what might seem a distant resolution to the problem(s). I have over 20 years experience working with various types of relationship problems; marital conflict, communication difficulties, parenting difficulties, adoption, chronic illnesses, LGBTQ issues, addictions, sadness, anxiety, etc.
We all have gone through difficult times one time or another. Sometimes we don’t have anybody to trust with our deepest thoughts, feelings & fears but having a counselor on your side might make a great difference between feeling alone or feeling supported. Identifying the solutions to the problems might be easier with a professional on your corner.
