Do you feel like you are in a cycle of repeating the same mistakes, the same arguments, and the same struggles? Did you ever pause for a moment to think why this may be happening to you? Does it frustrate you to the point where you feel like “this can’t go on anymore”; ”I have had it”; “can this even be fixed?” Yet, you are here, because you still have a sliver of hope and long for lasting change. Through the haze of your pain, you still yearn for an everlasting shift because you believe it possible on some level.
The strained or even broken relationships and unmet personal and professional goals are part of your journey which is your story. The story that caused you pain will now become the story of your triumph over your past interpersonal traumas. These traumas have tainted your life. Together though, with an array of different modalities for the treatment of trauma such as EMDR which is a therapy that can help you heal from past pain so that you can move forward in your life. I also like to work on you getting to know your inner child’s unmet needs or learning about the different parts of yourself that protect you so much so you end up not letting the other parts of yourself to shine. Together we can change the narrative.
In your relationships - whether I see you as a couple or as an individual - we will work together for you to be able to realize a deep emotional bond that connects one person to another and how to create a safe haven from the world, with security and a buffer against stress. This connection with another will create a secure base, allowing you and your partner to feel close when you are apart and out in the world.
