Conflict with loved ones can feel uniquely painful and consuming. Friendships, romantic partnerships, and parent-child connections have the potential to bring deep joy. But when relationships become strained or break down, it is hard to focus on anything other than making the pain stop. If you are replaying conversations, wondering why the same arguments keep happening, and desperately wishing for more joy and ease in personal or professional relationships, you are not alone. Support can help.
Together, we can identify and interrupt the old, unhelpful approaches that may be keeping you stuck in unhelpful relationship dynamics. I help clients clarify their needs, values, and goals so they can build more fulfilling and sustainable connections, no matter what stage of life they are in.
I'm Dr. Alexander Chan. I'm licensed as a Marriage & Family Therapist in DC, MD, NY, and NC. I have over 15 years of experience with couples, families, and individuals ages 14 -adulthood navigating relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I offer free initial consultations by phone or Zoom to see if we are a good fit. Call me!
