While working with couples and families, I often see this pattern of listening to respond or proclaiming an assumption before truly hearing their loved one. It’s an unfortunate habit that can create insecurity, fear, anxiety, and distrust in relationships. Sometimes, slowing down and paying closer attention to the pattern of communication will help us catch these fears, concerns, insecurities or misunderstandings. Perhaps you’re feeling tired, frustrated, judged, or worst of all, alone. You might find yourself defensive and rigid with someone you love. Not every disagreement has to end with shame, blame, discord, or abandonment. I welcome you to the journey of introspection. Using Emotionally Focus Therapy, I observe and capture these moments while attuning to the emotions of those I work with. There’s always a reason behind every behavior. There’s a deeper belief about oneself that often takes a safe environment to recognize, identify and work through. If you're reading this, it’s possible that you’re already on a path towards self-discovery. You’re already making an effort to find healing within yourself and your loved ones. With that being said, I’d be honored to be a part of your journey.
