Here’s The Real Reason Why So Many People Struggle With Conflict In Their Relationships: We have all heard how all relationships are "doomed" or "built on luck" since we were young how a true, deep, and loving connection is rare.

I promise you. Yes, the system that it takes both of you to create is the problem. If you can see the system is the problem, then we have a chance to start making things better. It’s the hardest thing to do, by the way. Such a simple thing, but it’s the hardest thing to do. To be able to step off the stage of your life where the drama is unfolding, come take a seat in the audience and go, Hey, hey, hey, come here. ... Look at these two. Oh Jesus, would you look at the pain these two are in, and everything they do keeps making it worse?. Oh my God, that’s a disaster. The poor devils. Poor devils, oh, this is awful. Come here, come take a look at this. Ohh, all they want to do is be close to each other; but everything they do is making things worse right now. Solution If we can see it that way, the tragedy of it, that the fight we’re in and how each of us are making things worse when we’re hurting, there’s a chance that we can soften and engage with each other, then de-escalate the fight and eventually be able to love, comfort and soothe each other.

The good news is, you two aren’t really jerks (even if you both act like it sometimes). You’re both just hurting inside. The focus you continue to have on your significant other’s ‘jerkiness’ ensures they will feel further justified in being a jerk, and thus you will suffer more.... You CAN learn to love better. In fact, you’re already doing it! Read more here: https://bit.ly/35AOwuO

Ask a coach series -- Teale O'Sullivan. What is something you've seen to be most surprising to couples in terms of something they didn't think about? I love this question! It's one of my favorite parts of the job when I help people recognize the connection between their inside feelings (vulnerability) to their outside expression (reactivity).... The reality is that it's almost impossible for our partners to see the link because all they can see is their partners' reactivity. Can we imagine sharing the inside place? Now that's where we can get those needs met! Schedule a free confidential consultation today https://empathi.com/schedule-your-free-consult

Client Success Story Before we got married (and I'm super open with mental health maintenance) my husband and I went to Empathi for about a year. What drew me here was the EFT (emotionally focused therapy) method. At first, we saw Arielle, who was the perfect transition from CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) to EFT. She educated us about the process and made us feel at ease. We transitioned to Gen as our next Empathi therapist, and she was clearly invested in our growth.... I always want to feel like my therapist genuinely cares about me, and I got that from Gen each session. -- Stefanie C. Discover if Empathi relationship coaching is a good fit for you.

Absolutely. This is also why good couples counseling is not like what people imagine it to be. No shaming. There isn’t even any challenging people (at first). And definitely Not in a confronting way. I love them, validate them, accept them until they feel safe to empathize with themselves and their significant other, and then it is amazing the insights and growth a person and a couple can have. Most of the way people think they have to approach change/growth/to get their ne...eds met is totally wrong and counterproductive. Just like how we used to train dogs didn’t work. Shaming and humiliating them. Stop rubbing your own nose, your significant other’s nose, and other people’s’ noses in their own poop. It doesn’t help them to stop pooping inside the house!

Your need for love is not a weakness. The need to be bonded with others is woven into the fabric of your being. It’s a feature, not a bug. Instead of resisting or suppressing feelings of rejection or abandonment, I want you to recognize it for what it is a call for greater connection with your true other, your family, and your friends. It’s the gooey little creature inside you that needs a primary other to love you, prioritize you, and be satisfied with your enoughness....
