You’ve noticed your toddler isn’t talking yet. Maybe she only talks repetitively. Or he seems delayed compared to the other kids at the park. The meltdowns are the worst you’ve ever seen. You’re thinking, “Is my child developing as she should? Is this a developmental delay? Is he autistic?” Is your doctor telling you to “wait and see?” Raising your child doesn't have to be this hard.

Are you constantly telling yourself, “Be strong!" Do you try to ignore your racing thoughts? You seem to start each day more mentally exhausted than the day before, wishing and hoping for something to change. Maybe you lost a loved one, your child, a pet, were told you have a chronic illness/disease, realized that your relationship is in shambles, are haunted by childhood experiences, or the pressures of your life/ job have begun to take their toll. You have thought of therapy but rationalize with yourself that “it isn’t so bad” and that you can keep trying to “fix yourself” only to find yourself circling in a self-blaming pattern.

Have you wondered about your partner's reluctance to seek therapy? Perhaps you've approached him with a sincere, "Let’s try couples or family therapy.

Navigating the growing pains of the language school of love and the different dialects of each other's hearts fluently is a natural part of a couple's life's journey, and this can also, undoubtedly, serve as a strain on the relationship.
