It has been a great privilege and opportunity to work with some fantastic trainers this week.

No matter how far weโ€™ve come, itโ€™s so valuable to continue to open ourselves to opportunities to continue to grow and learn.

The model of Emotionally Focused Therapy is powerful and humbles even the most seasoned therapists. Iโ€™m grateful for the beautiful work I do with my clients and am SO excited to get back into the office with you all next week!

Guess what the number one predictor of success is in therapy?

Study after study has shown that the quality of the relationship between client and therapist is the only reliable and the most powerful predictor of positive outcomes in therapy.

More important than your financial and/or social supportโ€ฆMore important than the model(s) of therapy your therapist usesโ€ฆMore important than your motivation and effort. ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜๐˜† ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ฝ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐˜€๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐˜† ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐˜†.

So if you aren't really vibing with your therapist, it's okay - it happens. We aren't a good fit for everyone. Bring it up to your therapist. A good therapist should not judge or take it personally.

Donโ€™t settle. You should feel truly cared for โ€ฆ seen + understood โ€ฆ challenged, yet hopeful.

Did you know most therapists these days offer free therapy consultations?
If you find a therapist, who seems to be a good fit, ask if they offer a free consultation. And if so, take advantage of it! Many therapists offer this service as a way of getting to know their referrals better and helping them determine if they are a good fit.

Also, if you are seeking couples therapy, I highly recommend both partners taking advantage of this service, if possible, as it is essential that both partners feel comfortable and hopeful for the change they are seeking before scheduling.

Feel free to use this opportunity to share your relationship challenges, specific goals and ask any questions that would help you determine if the therapist is a good fit for you.

Did you know that couples wait an average of six years of being unhappy before getting help? So, if you are unhappy in your relationship, and it has been a while, know you are not alone.

Also know that it is important not to wait until your relationship is in crisis, or you're about to break up, or your partner has left you before seeking the help your relationship needs. When couples wait too long, they can show up in despair, needing an appointment ASAP. (Which often isnโ€™t possible for coupleโ€™s therapists to offer.) In addition, when we suffer repeated emotional pain and injury for too long without effective repair, we form resentment and it can be more difficult for the therapist and couple to address together.

If you are finding yourself wondering if you should get help for your relationship and wondering how to find the right couples therapist near me... it could be a sign that now is the time! Relationships are not easy but thereโ€™s great help out there!
