Love Heal Grow: Relationship Therapy & Resources

03/29/2026

Sharing an experience that carries heavy emotional weight can feel awkward and sometimes even impossible.

You might feel yourself wanting hide away from the world at the thought of telling someone what you've been through.

Being emotionally vulnerable is scary. It can also bring an immense amount of relief to release the emotions and thoughts you've kept under lock and key for years.

Know that it is always your decision to tell someone your story. No one is entitled to hear the details of what you went through unless it is something you want to share.

No matter how much you are ready to share, our therapists are here to listen, support, and give you the tools you need to help process your emotions.

It can be challenging for many to work up the courage to tell their current therapist that they feel ready to move on. In reality, it's completely okay to stop seeing your therapist at any time for any reason.

Some reasons you might want to "breakup" with your therapist are:
- You feel like you aren't working towards your goals or progress has been stagnant.
- You are struggling to trust or be vulnerable with them.
- They don't seem to be listening to you or understanding your perspective and what you need.
- Your therapist doesn't acknowledge and affirm your unique identities and/or dismisses your experiences of racism/s*xism/ableism/genderphobia/homophobia/etc.
- They don't have training or relevant skills in a specific area of focus that you want to work on.

Though it may be anxiety-inducing, it can be very beneficial to have a conversation with your therapist first.

Sometimes simply sharing how you are feeling about your sessions so far can deepen your therapist's understanding of what you need and improve progress in future sessions.

Even if you still feel it's time to move on after talking to them, it's a great to provide valuable and constructive feedback. Therapists are human too - they are always growing and learning in life the same as you.

But the bottom line is - your therapist should be open to hearing how you feel in therapy and whether something they said or did didn’t feel good to you.

If your therapist gets defensive or reactive, this isn’t a safe therapeutic relationship and you might explore working with someone else.

And if they are doing something as serious as violating your personal boundaries or their professional ethical boundaries, ghosting and reporting their behavior may be the best option.
