Couple & Marriage Counseling in Redlands, CA

You’re Worried about your relationship

You’re worried about your relationship, that is, when you let yourself think about it. You’re committed to your partner and you’re not interested in starting over with someone else. But after the first few years together, a strange, palpable distance has set in between you and your partner leaving you feeling confused, frustrated, discouraged, and lonely.

Agreeing to Disagree with your partner?

You can still remember when you felt deeply understood, safely connected, and hopeful about you and your partner’s shared vision for life. Nowadays, you wonder what, if anything, you still share. You prioritize and problem-solve differently, parent differently, have conflicting sexual needs, manage finances differently, long for different kinds of leisure time, and are struggling to resolve the endless conflicts created by all these differences. Your partner seems edgy, distracted, emotionally distant, and disconnected. Agreeing to disagree clearly isn’t working! Yet, you’re not sure how to change what has become a predictable cycle of arguing with no resolution.

Being Honest about your relationship

Deep inside, you know this conflict cycle and disconnect isn’t good for your relationship. You wonder what your partner is thinking but your too scared to be honest and find out the truth about how you both feel. Underneath it all, though, you miss your partner terribly and are scared to lose your relationship. You want to find togetherness again and wholeheartedly believe you and your partner could skillfully navigate these differences if you could just find some solid guidance and support.
