​​​Challenges in Relationships

 

Are you experiencing difficulties with a partner, relative, friend, or boss? When someone’s actions or words don’t align with our expectations, it can be deeply painful, leaving us feeling confused or questioning our own worth. Relationships are essential for our sense of joy, security, and acceptance, yet they can also be sources of hurt, frustration, or resentment. 

​Common Relationship Problems

 

Many people notice recurring patterns in their relationships, often influenced by their attachment style. You may find yourself drawn to emotionally unavailable partners, struggle with closeness, or feel anxious about abandonment. Others stay in relationships where they were treated poorly or tolerated emotional abuse because nobody taught them how to love and value themselves. Some people avoid dating or forming new connections altogether, held back by fears of being rejected, misunderstood, or hurt again. 

 

People-Pleasing and poor boundaries are often part of these patterns. If you find yourself prioritising others’ needs over your own, sharing too much too quickly, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling unable to say ‘no,’ these are common coping strategies.  They often develop from past emotional experiences, helping you avoid conflict or rejection. 

 

All of these relationship patterns can repeat until they are brought into our conscious awareness, and we learn what feels safe, what doesn’t, and how to respond in ways that protect our well-being.  Relationship difficulties can feel tense, confusing, or emotionally exhausting, even when part of you longs for closeness and connection.

Relationship Difficulties

​​

Many people notice familiar patterns when relationships feel challenging. You might find yourself experiencing situations like ghosting, repeated arguments, emotional manipulation, or narcissistic abuse. Gaslighting, controlling behaviours, or subtle attempts to undermine you can leave you second-guessing your own feelings and perceptions, making it hard to trust your judgement.  

 

Other common experiences include misunderstandings, being ignored or dismissed, conflicts that keep repeating, or sudden losses. These situations can bring intense emotions such as grief, hurt, sadness, frustration, jealousy, or a sense of disappointment. You may feel emotionally drained, overthink conversations, struggle to make decisions, or have sleepless nights after interactions that should feel safe. 

​Support For Relationship Difficulties 

 

In our work together, we gently explore the familiar patterns that show up in your relationships and how they affect your sense of self, safety, and trust. I support you in regulating emotional responses, establishing boundaries that feel balanced, and reconnecting with your own needs, values, and inner confidence. This process can help you feel more secure in who you are, recognise what you truly deserve, and approach relationships with clarity and self-assurance.

Our work is especially helpful if you find yourself repeatedly attracting emotionally unavailable partners, cheaters, or relationships marked by narcissistic or controlling dynamics. Together, we also focus on overcoming self-limiting beliefs, processing intense emotional responses, and learning healthier ways of relating to others. Through a compassionate, tailored approach, you can begin to rebuild self-worth, develop confidence in your choices, and create relationships that feel more harmonious, respectful, and secure.
