Feeling Discouraged About Dating And Relationships?
Are you frustrated by relationship prospects or the fact that you keep experiencing the same setbacks in trying to foster lasting connections with others?
Is online dating causing you to be doubtful or critical of yourself?
Or have you recently ended a relationship despite wanting to make things work?
If you are a high achiever, you are used to excelling in every area of life—so why are healthy, sustainable relationships so difficult to come by? It seems that you’re getting trapped in the same cycle of putting yourself out there, meeting someone promising but then not getting the results you are looking for. Maybe you are regularly being rejected or “ghosted,” or maybe you keep finding flaws in your dating prospects that you just can’t get over. As a result, you’re probably feeling lonely, anxious, and hopeless.
You May Be In A Relationship But Are Nevertheless Struggling…
Alternatively, you may have found someone you have a strong connection with. However, as time goes on, obstacles seem to be getting in the way of maintaining a healthy partnership. Perhaps one or both of you work long hours that compromise your ability to spend quality time together. Or maybe you have started engaging in a toxic cycle of conflict—involving yelling, tension, or withdrawal—that is causing you to question your future together. You are invested in making it work and avoiding past relationship pitfalls, but you just don’t know how.
A substantial portion of my clients seek therapy because there is some aspect of their relationship(s) that is making them feel frustrated and dissatisfied. Working together in individual counseling, I help clients understand relationship dynamics and their role within them to foster a new sense of self-awareness. With newfound clarity and understanding, it is possible for my clients to achieve the relationship of their dreams.
