Individual psychotherapy is ideal for you if you are struggling with: heartbreak, loneliness, betrayal trauma such as infidelity, or parental alienation a loss of desire and eroticism with your partner or if you are not sure if you want to stay married. Individual psychotherapy will help you get to heart of the matter.
Relationships go through many phases and often require couples to “metaphorically” start over for each phase. This is easier said then done. Many couples drift apart, don’t know how to talk or connect with each other, loose a sense of desire for each other and sometimes betray each other. If you and your partner find yourselves in any of these circumstances, then couples counseling would be right for you both.
Human dialogue is the remedy for loneliness and loss of connection with others. Learning how to assert yourself and ask for your wants and needs to be met, can feel scary for some. Bringing up uncomfortable subjects with others without being confrontational can be scary for others. Conversation coaching can help you with all the above.
If you are having a hard time getting over your ex and or are wanting to have a step by step roadmap to help you heal from heartbreak and then find the confidence to move forward in your life, then try these online self-help courses.
A soothing and entertaining self -help book to help those who have survived a relationship and betrayal trauma and long to live authentically in the age of modern love.
