Relationships

Do you feel like your relationships are struggling?


Do you find yourself constantly butting heads, unable to understand each other? Have you started to feel emotionally distant, even though you deeply care about them? Do you find yourself saying “I just don’t get along with people”?

Relationships are hard! Trying to understand someone else with their own experiences and perspectives while also feeling heard and understood can be difficult. Add on top of that, your heart starts pounding when you even think about addressing a conflict, your voice gets higher and maybe you even feel like you’re going to cry once you do bring the thing up, and you definitely can’t think straight once the other person starts telling you their point of view. Therapy focusing on relationships—whether for a romantic partner or a close friend—addresses not only the symptoms but also the deeper issues that might be causing the tension.

Here are some common signs that you may benefit from exploring your interpersonal dynamics:

  • Feeling angry and isolating from others

  • Frequent arguments or miscommunications

  • Emotional distance or lack of connection

  • Difficulty understanding each other’s feelings or perspectives

  • Trust issues, jealousy, or insecurity

  • Feeling unheard or unappreciated

  • Struggling with intimacy or closeness

  • Resentment or unresolved conflict

  • Struggling with life changes (like a move, job change, or a major personal event)

  • Difficulty balancing individual needs with shared responsibilities

  • A sense that the relationship has lost its spark or sense of meaning

Therapy can help by uncovering the root causes of these issues, allowing you to regulate yourself, communicate more effectively, rebuild trust, and develop healthier ways of relating to others. It helps you look at your relationships from a fresh perspective and equips you with the tools to resolve conflicts, deepen your bond, and move forward together.
