Relationship Issues Therapists in Auckland
While medication and behavioural skills can help soften these symptoms, only psychotherapy can get to the underlying root causes, which almost always occur in the realm of relationship - with yourself and with others.
Anxiety can manifest as nervousness, racing heart, dread, worrying, low sex drive, sleep struggles, panic attacks, or stress. Depression may involve persistent low mood, hopelessness, numbness, guilt, irritability, isolation, suicidal thoughts, confusion, or increased substance use. Relationships with partners, family, or colleagues may bring challenges in communication, emotional conflict, trust, intimacy, or break-ups.
New skills can reduce symptoms and improve relationships. But long-lasting change and new choices in life requires better understanding yourself and addressing the root cause of your issues, even if it takes time.

Ready to assist you with struggles through Adult ADHD, substance dependency, relationships, 'subclinical mental health issues' i.e. grief, anxiety, parenting, doubt, feeling stuck. I am a mindfulness coach & supervisor.

Together we would explore your history, your family of origin, your way of being in relationship (your attachment style) and also any trauma (defining trauma as anything that was too overwhelming to feel alone).
I work with Individuals and Couples. With individuals it is an integrated approach through an attachment/nervous system/trauma lens. With couples, I am a PACT level 2 therapist which layers over how I work with individuals.

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.
