Couples and Relationships

I’ve been a psychotherapist for 30 years and have worked with couples all along the way. Never before have I seen couples going through so much pressure as they have in the past 2 1/2 years.

Yes, I have been with couples who have struggled and have massive breakdowns and challenges. But from what I have seen with the pandemic is that it is flushing up all of the cracks that were there before and putting it in the couple’s face. Not fun.. however, it can be good to know where the most prevalent issues are in the relationship that needs to be dealt with.

I have often thought that some challenges that are put aside or ignored are like a little seed in your tooth that you don’t know about. Over time, it can turn into an infection and hurt like hell.

All relationships need attending to. One tip I encourage ALL couples to do is to have a weekly intentional meeting. This meeting is to address the roses and the thorns. All people need to be seen for the effort they are doing, the good that they are bringing, and appreciation for it. And also, couples need to address the challenges they are having also so it doesn’t become a seed in the tooth.

Many people don’t know how to discuss issues in a healthy way. Stay tuned here and on my social media channels for healthy ways of communication.

Your relationship can grow to be fresh, vital, and alive.
