We Need to Talk

Jun172019
RelationshipsWeNeedTalk

It is not uncommon that when we hear “we need to talk”, we begin to wonder what is wrong in the relationship. I find that most of us make it a priority to discuss what is not going well in the relationship rather than what is going well in the relationship.  I would like to encourage couples to make time weekly to share what they appreciate about their partner and relationship.  This can be a great way maintain the quality of their relationship and continue to build connection. Also, this can help couples get into the habit and become more comfortable about sharing how they are feeling in the relationship. This practice of communicating can be helpful long term, as it can help us build skills in communicating with more ease. Let’s face it, speaking about what is going well in the relationship is much easier than sharing things you would like to change. If we don’t get into the practice of sharing what is going well with one another, wouldn’t it be more difficult to share the more challenging things?

Testimonials
“I’m lucky to have found Hendrix! She has really guided me to being a stronger person. I have more self worth and self confidence than ever before and I feel like I am on the right path to being the best version of myself with her guidance!”
“Hendrix is absolutely amazing and really cares. She goes above and beyond to assist in my session.”
“Hendrix is very easy to speak with, very familiar with my issues, and I always feel better after sessions.”
“Hendrix guided my fiancé and I through the premarital counseling sessions in a very structured, open, and thought provoking way. We always looked forward to our sessions and Hendrix opened our eyes to ways to look at topics already discussed in a new light!”
“Dr. Coles is a true professional. She will provide you the tools to get on the right track to begin the healing process in your marriage.”
  “Thank you for helping us to realize where we can improve.”
  “Houston Relationship Therapy has provided me with an amazing resource to help me get through one of the hardest things I feel I will experience.”
  “Great thing to do BEFORE you get engaged!”
  “I was going through a really tough time when my relationship ended. I am very happy to have had the support from Houston Relationship Therapy in order to process this grief and work through my emotions during this breakup.”
  “Jen does a great job of keeping intense subjects more manageable, and often fun. It has meant that issues and problems get put into perspective, and get addressed when otherwise they would not be able to be discussed, much less solved. Not only all of that, but Jen is incredibly insightful, and good at finding exercises to address those problems and retrain thinking processes.”
