Healthy Love and Relationships

1748703338You are made to love.

And you have an endless supply to give. But when it comes to an actual relationship, you feel lost.

In the past, you were so hungry for connection that you overlooked glaring “red flags.”

You sacrificed important needs to avoid being alone.

And even though you gave and gave, the relationship ended anyways.

Past relationships have left scars.

People who were supposed to love you hurt you.

Betrayal. Abandonment. Dishonesty. Abuse. Manipulation.

You now have a hard time trusting.

When you are in a relationship, you jump to conclusions or overreact to the slightest change in behavior.

Out of insecurity and fear, you avoid communicating your feelings.

A wall develops between you and your partner.

603032972Love is so much more than a feeling.

It’s a set of commitments and actions.

Honesty. Communication. Patience. Understanding. Forgiveness.

But these attributes and behaviors only develop with emotional maturity.

Healthy love requires intention, experience, and practice.

Therapy is a great place to begin.

In therapy, we can heal unresolved grief so that you don’t bring all that “baggage” into your current situation or future relationships.

You will learn to communicate your feelings and needs directly, assertively, and lovingly.

Through therapeutic connection and activities, you will gain experience and practice in the habits and behaviors of healthy love.

Whether you are trying to find love or want to improve your relationship, I can help guide you.

The love you seek DOES exist.

And you are HALF of the equation.

That means you have significant power in the situation.
