Punjabi Therapists in Palisades, NY

It feels like you and your partner are speaking different languages. You say something, and they misunderstand. They reply, and you misinterpret that. There's a language barrier, and something is getting lost in translation. You feel unheard, alone, and unsure of what to do. You want so badly to explain to your partner how you feel and have them truly understand where you’re coming from. This cycle of misinterpretation has become so predictable that you’ve stopped talking about anything real in your relationship. You avoid each other and behave more like roommates than partners. You’d like to get back to feeling seen and connected.
