Couples Counseling
You care deeply about your partner yet you have to admit that you are growing resentful. You feel stuck between the belief that you should appreciate your partner for what they do and the reality that you feel unappreciated and taken for granted. You suspect that your partner is also feeling the disconnect yet you struggle to find the time or the words to have a real conversation about it.
Being in a healthy, committed relationship requires ongoing effort.
Couples counseling can be challenging—many clients struggle to communicate and grow resentful over time. However, it can be so rewarding to see people learn to communicate in a healthy and loving way and really learn to listen. You may be surprised to find that you are not quite as skilled at listening as you think - there are specific techniques that can be learned to really improve understanding and it offers the potential for clients to let go of past hurts and feel closer.
I believe that all relationships require an investment of time and energy, otherwise, they worsen and wither away over time. Find a way to identify areas of unease and disconnectedness and address them before they become ingrained. Partners don’t always have to agree but I think they always need to try their best to understand each other and respect one another’s feelings. Couples counseling can help.
