Is the dream fading?
So, what do most people do when the dream is fading rather than coming true? Usually, we try doing the same things harder and harder with mediocre results. We may even decide that this person was our better half – and that it can never be what it was at the start.
When a marriage or partnership works, it’s beautiful and passionate and something you want to be a part of. When it stops working, you can feel stepped on, pushed around, and unappreciated.
We didn’t plan on this.
Because betrayal or trauma or addiction can bring wounds that you didn’t plan on, most couples facing these issues don’t know how to move through the damage and build a strong relationship again.
But the important thing is that you’ve come to this site because you realize you need someone who can guide you forward. That gives you an advantage, because you’re opening to the possibility of reaching out for help.
What we need is a fresh perspective.
The same old things will give you the same old things.
As a couple, you need to learn the basics of relationships that weren’t taught in school and that your parents may not have passed on to you. But you must also unlearn some unhelpful habits you’ve picked up over the years.
Don’t worry – the goal isn’t perfection, but growth, healing, and a reigniting of what drew you together in the first place.
Healing is a process, not an event.
“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is today.”
For couples, the best time for therapy is the moment you notice a consistent disconnection. Getting started is sometimes the hardest part. Be compassionate enough with yourself to admit that you could use a hand.
Therapist-tested, couple-approved
It all makes a lot more sense when you have someone who has done this before to help you through the process. I’d like to be that therapist if you both are willing to try something different.
