Here's the thing: it's okay to miss someone, even if you now know they aren't the right fit for your life.

Often, it's just you reflecting and cherishing the history, shared moments, and the bond you once had.

Remember, missing doesn't equate to needing or wanting them back. It's a part of the grieving process—a journey towards healing and rediscovering your own strength.

Let's navigate through these emotions together and pave the way for a brighter, empowered future. 🌟

Curious about what a PACT session looks like? 🤔🔍

In this innovative approach, we delve into the intricacies of your relationship, focusing on moment-to-moment shifts in expression, body language, and voice.

Unlike traditional couple therapy, PACT involves real-time experiences, mimicking the challenges you face, and guiding you through them. Sessions may extend beyond the typical 50-minute hour, allowing for in-depth exploration, and might even last 3–6 hours.

Interested in a more dynamic approach to couples therapy? PACT might be for you. Let's talk!

Curious about PACT and why it's a cornerstone of my practice?

Developed by Dr. Stan Tatkin, PACT seamlessly merges attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, and arousal regulation, making it a powerful tool for navigating even the most complex couple dynamics.

PACT is rooted in cutting-edge research, exploring neuroscience, attachment theory, and the biology of human arousal. The brain's intricate dance, early relationship imprints, and real-time energy management—PACT weaves these elements to decode and transform relationships. 🌐✨

It's okay to grapple with guilt and regret, to ponder the what-ifs and should-haves.

Remember, the dynamics of a relationship involve the actions and choices of both partners. While introspection is natural, carrying the burden of fault isn't.

Acknowledge, release, and heal.

If you're wrestling with guilt, regret, or shame in your divorce journey, send me a DM for personalized support.

Here’s the truth: some people's discomfort with your emotional pain over your divorce will impact if and how they show up and support you.

Navigating the emotional aftermath of divorce can be a uniquely challenging journey. It's important to recognize that not everyone will understand or support your pain.

Some may feel uncomfortable with the depth of your emotions, affecting how they show up for you.

Remember, your healing is a personal journey, and surrounding yourself with those who offer genuine understanding and support can make all the difference 💖✨

Ever wondered what Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is all about and why it's one of the cornerstones of my practice?

EFT, pioneered by Dr. Sue Johnson, is a revolutionary approach grounded in attachment theory. It delves into the profound dynamics of adult love relationships, understanding that as inherently social beings, we are wired to form and sustain deep emotional connections.

By unraveling negative cycles and fostering open communication, EFT enables couples to experience each other in profound new ways.

Recognized by the American Psychological Association for its effectiveness, EFT is not just a theoretical framework. It's a validated approach supported by robust research, offering couples a path to lasting, positive transformation.

I’ve dedicated myself to being at the forefront of therapeutic approaches, and my training in EFT reflects this commitment. My proficiency in this modality reflects my dedication to offering my clients a scientifically validated and emotionally resonant path to healing and strengthening their relationships.

Creating deep and intimate connections often involves asking thoughtful and reflective questions. Here are three questions you might consider:

〰 What is your most cherished childhood memory, and how has it shaped who you are today?
This question opens the door for your partner to share personal experiences and helps you understand the events that have influenced their character and values.

〰 In what ways do you envision growing together in the future, both individually and as a couple?
This question invites a discussion about aspirations, goals, and shared visions, fostering a sense of unity and understanding about your individual and collective journeys.

〰 Is there something you've never shared with anyone that you'd like to open up about?
Encouraging vulnerability, this question allows your partner to share something personal, fostering trust and deepening the emotional connection between you two.

Post-divorce healing is a journey, and at the heart of that journey lies the crucial concept of boundaries.

In my coaching programs, we dedicate weeks to the art of boundary-setting. Why? Because it's not just about saying no; it's about saying yes to your well-being, your desires, and the life you want to create. Boundaries are your declaration of independence.

Setting boundaries doesn't make you selfish. You’re recognizing your needs, your limits, and respecting them. You don't need to feel guilty, and you certainly don't need to apologize for prioritizing your mental and emotional health.

Remember, boundaries are not walls to keep others out; they are gates that let you decide what comes in. They are a gift you give to yourself and those around you.

So, are you ready to start your journey? Together, let's step into a life where boundaries are not restrictions but pathways to freedom.

Why are relationship check-ins crucial? 🤔

Just like a car needs regular maintenance, relationships thrive when we invest time and effort into understanding each other. Check-ins are not about fixing what's broken; they're about nourishing and growing together.

So how do you conduct a meaningful check-in? Read on!

Choose a calm moment and a quiet space where both of you feel comfortable. The intention is to foster open and honest communication.

Put away distractions, be fully present, and give each other your undivided attention. Mindfulness creates a sacred space for vulnerability.

Express your emotions and thoughts openly. Whether it's joy, frustration, or dreams, let your partner in.

Truly hear what your partner is saying without judgment. Validate their feelings and show empathy. This strengthens the foundation of trust.

Discuss your individual and shared goals. It could be personal growth, career aspirations, or travel plans. Aligning your visions creates a sense of partnership.

Take a moment to express gratitude and appreciation. Acknowledge the efforts and qualities you value in each other. Positivity breeds positivity.

Remember, consistency is key! 🗝️ Save this post so you and your partner can refer to it whenever you need to.
