Relationships for One

So, there you are – being single or feeling disconnected.

You just ended another relationship – or you continue to struggle with people in various ways.

How come you don’t fit in, feel like people understand you, how come you don’t understand them?

You end up here because of another unanswered call, another friendship you thought you made but didn’t pan out, or another argument with a family member that leaves you in tears, disbelief, and confusion.

Whatever the cause, you feel like a failure in relationships.

Therapy can make a difference.

Therapy can help you prepare for the next love adventure, a great friendship, and feeling more connected to the people in your world.

It may seem it should be natural or easy to know how to get along with people that you care about and that you would know what to do and what to say, but that’s not your reality.

Sometimes, we need to be shown and taught social skills, how to communicate, and how to manage conflict. We should learn to welcome it because it will improve connection and growth.

It’s ok to need help to learn how to relate to people better.

You don’t have to feel helpless or hopeless because of poor relationships, not being paired up with someone, or difficulties connecting.

I can show you how to understand yourself better and make positive changes with better insight and practical skills.

We will work together to take a thorough history of your relationships, explore your attachment style, which is set and shaped in childhood; assess your values and goals; use role-play for hands-on learning of helpful and unhelpful behaviors; and talk about confidence, self-respect, and self-esteem and how they are connected to relating to others.

Being successful in a relationship can be learned! Call me for your free 15-minute consultation to get started.
