Laura Falk - Licensed Professional Counselor

When you see that your partner is stressed, your first instinct might be to back away and give them space.

But what might happen when you lean in and offer support? That connection and co-regulation can be incredibly healing.

When your partner is stressed and you don't know what to do, here are some helpful questions to ask:

If you're going to ask "how are you doing?", make sure you're prepared to listen and offer support.

Checking in with those around you and offering non-judgemental support can make the difference between life and death.

Be the light for someone struggling in the dark. No one should fight alone.

We NEED to check in with those around us. Not sure how? Check out these questions below:

An attachment injury is an emotional wound in a relationship. It happens after a breach of trust—particularly in a time of need.

Attachment injuries violate human connection and create insecurity in relationships.

If left untreated, couples are unable to heal and move forward in their relationship. Couples experience:

- limited (or non-existent) trust
- decreased intimacy (emotional, physical, sexual)
- blaming and defensiveness
- low levels of relationship satisfaction
- continued cycle of pain and hurt

If your relationship has suffered an attachment injury, there is hope!

What exactly are we looking at? Seems a little complicated, right? 😵‍💫

THIS is what we're exploring during your couples counseling session!

As an EFCT trained clinician, I help couples track and explore their negative cycle and then shift towards a more secure connection.

If what you've been trying isn't working in your relationship, let's try something better.

There may not be big, blow-up fights in your relationship, but the absence of conflict does not automatically mean you're connected as a couple.

Are you and your partner able to be emotionally accessible, responsive, and engaged with one another in times of need?

Can your partner trust that when they reach out to you, you'll be there for them? That if they are vulnerable in sharing painful emotions, you'll pull them close instead of pushing them away?

The bottom line is this: if what you're doing in the relationship isn't working, it's time to make a change.

If you're ready to start on a journey that brings you and your partner closer than you've ever been, reach out today. Send me an email at [email protected] to set up your free consultation.
