What if you could learn what it is you need for yourself, learn to prioritize those things, and stop settling for what you think others want you to be?

What if you can learn assertive communication skills and start expressing your feelings and concerns and no longer repress them?

What if you could clearly see patterns in relationships and learn to pay attention to those red flags when you first spot them?

There are many types of relationships that people can find themselves involved in. Relationships have many emotions attached to them and most of us know when things aren’t going well, when things feel strained, challenging, or unhealthy in some way.

Relationships are the healthiest when each partner maintains his/her own identity while respecting and supporting their partner.

Can you spot difficult relationships? Here are some things to look out for:

Steady conflict; lack of trust; unhealthy boundaries; emotional manipulation; disrespect and/or contempt; imbalance of power; unresolved issues; you feel drained and exhausted; and you do not feel emotionally supported by your partner.

Remember, the goal in relationships is to prioritize our own well-being, to surround ourselves with people who love and support us, and to set good boundaries with these people.

If you feel lost in your relationship, I can help guide you on the path of self-discovery. This is a process that happens over time, but as a guide I will show you ways to re-prioritize yourself and return to a more balanced life.

Your personal growth and well-being are very important, and if you are feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, or unsafe, you might be considering leaving a relationship. Seeking therapy at these times can provide you with the extra support you need to help you make the right decision.

It’s normal to think that you won’t find another partner if you leave the relationship, especially if you are feeling lonely, but self-love and self-compassion need to be taken into consideration.
