RELATIONSHIP THERAPY IN LOUISIANA
Strengthening relationships. Living harmoniously.
When our relationships suffer, so can we.
It hasn’t always felt this way, right? You used to feel like your relationships were fulfilling, meaningful aspects of your life. You got joy from them and put immense energy into their survival. But something has changed. Maybe it’s the passage of time or maybe you are in a different phase now—new location, new job, parenthood, etc.. Perhaps there has been a breach of trust or there is shared pain and contempt that drives you apart. Whatever it is, it can feel hard to know where to begin.
Whether it’s wanting to repair the relationships you have or walking into new relationships with more confidence, better boundaries, and less fear and doubt, you know you can’t keep doing the same things and expecting different results.
You’re tired of feeling caught in this cycle:
Putting in effort and trying to make changes
Feeling like you’re not seeing consistent results
Giving up and feeling frustrated
how i can help:
Relationship therapy can help you thrive with authentic, meaningful connections.
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I integrate a systems approach into understanding my clients. This approach involves considering how an individual operates within and is influenced by their relational networks or systems. Even within individual therapy, exploring our interpersonal dynamics offers a gateway to personal development and growth.
Whether you view your relationship hurdles as short-term or longstanding, we can explore the cycles that keep you from getting the connections you seek.
Through a lens of self-compassion, we will develop goals that help you define and communicate your needs. As you cultivate healthier and more enriching connections, the patterns of unhealthy relating and coping mechanisms will gradually cease. Your commitment to transforming what no longer serves you will be met with my steadfast support and guidance throughout your journey of change.
