Your partner seems distant, a friend doesn't text back, or someone responds differently than usual. You start to spiral: "Did I do something wrong?" "Are they upset with me?" "Do they not want me anymore?" You replay conversations, analyze every detail, & feel overwhelmed by fear, hurt, or anger. The emotional reaction feels bigger than the situation, & you may find yourself withdrawing, seeking reassurance, becoming defensive, or reacting in ways you later regret. You feel rejected, abandoned, misunderstood, or not good enough. In our work, we can heal old wounds, regulate emotions, & improve relationships.
Using DBT, we build skills to help you manage intense emotions, tolerate distress, & respond effectively in relationships. Through EMDR, we process the past experiences that continue to fuel these reactions so they no longer feel overwhelming. We'll build your confidence, improve relationships, & develop a greater sense of safety & trust in yourself.
If understanding yourself & your patterns, having stable moods, better relationships, & inner strength feel like something worth working toward, this is a good place to start. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation & we will talk about whether working together will help you reach your goals!
