You've been feeling disconnected from your job, creative interests, your kids. Your partner tells you that you shut down, but can't find the words to express what you feel. Coping skills you've used before don't seem to work and you want to understand why you keep making the same mistakes or choices over and over again. You're not typically someone who asks for help. It's even hard for you to ask for directions. Having a therapist in your corner can truly be life-changing.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
