Therapy for Relationship Trauma

Many of us long to have a deep connection with another person, but for some that relationship only lasts for so long before you find out the person you fell in love with isn’t as healthy as you thought. Sarcastic statements turn into cruel remarks, and insults replace pet names. They may have become manipulative, causing you to doubt what is really happening, or maybe they give you the silent treatment when they don’t get their way. Regardless of what your situation looks like, therapy is often a helpful place to start learning how to set boundaries with those we love.

Some common symptoms of relationship trauma include:

• Feeling guilty

• Blaming yourself

• Difficulty holding your partner responsible

• Feelings of isolation

• Being easily triggered by reminders of your partner

• Nightmares

• Difficulty trusting yourself

• Wanting to jump into a new relationship

Here’s how I can help:

Using a combination of therapies, including EMDR and Ego State Therapy you can begin to heal and reconnect with who you were before the relationship began, or better yet, connect with parts of yourself you haven’t even discovered yet.
