Relationship Counselling Burlington.
Relationships are hard.
You know what you want but it’s hard to ask for it. Or maybe you really don’t know what you want but know that you are unhappy. Your dreams of being fulfilled in a relationship seems so far away now. You are most often unsatisfied and losing hope that you will ever get what you are needing.
You are noticing a pattern in your relationships.
You are starting to see that you are attracting the same type of person. They are needy and next fixing, and you are right there to fix them. Or, they are ones that typically are not emotional or connected to their feelings but you are dying for them to open up and be expressive and emotional.
Maybe you are noticing that you have a history of dating the abuser. The anger one. The selfish and grandiose one.
I have helped hundreds of thousands of people figure out their relationship patterns.
In order to gain a more satisfied relationship you need to figure out the patterns that you have in choosing a relationship. In our sessions, we will begin peeling back your family of origin and discover that wounded child inside you that embraces conflict, lack of security and predictability, and help you soothe that wounded child.
The concept of the wounded child in Relational Life Therapy refers to the remnants of unresolved childhood experiences that continue to impact an individual's emotional responses and behaviors in adult relationships. This vulnerable aspect often manifests as emotional pain, fear, or attachment issues, which can hinder one’s ability to connect meaningfully with partners. By acknowledging and nurturing the wounded child within, individuals can begin to heal from past traumas and develop healthier relational patterns. This therapeutic approach encourages self-compassion and awareness, allowing clients to address the root causes of their relational challenges, ultimately fostering more fulfilling interactions with others.
In Relational Life Therapy, the concept of family of origin plays a crucial role in understanding how individuals relate to one another within their romantic relationships. Family of origin refers to the family system in which a person was raised, encompassing the dynamics, values, and communication patterns that were established during formative years. These early experiences significantly shape an individual's beliefs, behaviors, and emotional responses in adult relationships. By exploring the influences of the family of origin, therapists can help couples identify recurring patterns and unresolved issues, fostering greater awareness and encouraging growth. This insight allows partners to work through conflicts and enhance their connection by breaking free from limiting patterns that may have been inherited from their families of origin.
