From Attacking to Inviting

In couples therapy, we delve into the underlying causes of conflicts and collaboratively work towards finding resolutions that foster personal and relational growth, ultimately aiming to cultivate harmony within the relationship. Recognizing the inevitability of conflicts, we focus on developing constructive approaches to addressing and resolving them to strengthen the bond between partners.

To resolve conflicts effectively, it's essential to prioritize key steps that promote open communication, mutual understanding, and the betterment of your relationship. In order to do so, we work together on shifting communication from what sounds like an attack, to one that invites conversation. By engaging in constructive dialogue, actively listening to one another's perspective, and showing empathy, you can navigate disagreements with greater ease and foster a stronger connection.

These key steps are:

Self-Regulation

Empathy

Validation

Vulnerability

Curiosity

Acknowledging your power to affect your partner and using it to improve the relationship.

Exploring how your partner shows and feels love after a tough talk.

When explored in session, by delving deeper into these strategies and adapting them to resonate with your individual experiences, we aim to facilitate a journey of self-discovery and connection. By committing to this process with an open heart and a willingness to invest in the growth of your relationship, you are paving the way for healing, understanding, and shared evolution.

I would love to see if we could be a great fit in working together.
