Relationship counseling can improve friendships, work, church, and community relationships. Sometimes after people hurt each other trust can be broken and needs repair. Sometimes communication, personalities or interactions can be challenging. Counseling can help restore or develop great relationships, leading to life satisfaction.
Relationship counseling offers a pathway to understanding and addressing concerns or conflicts between you and your friend, coworker, or any relationship. It provides a safe space to explore issues, receive feedback, and develop healthier communication and interaction patterns. Signs that it may be time for counseling include a desire for a stronger relationship, increased conflict, difficulty reconnecting after disagreements, feeling unheard or misunderstood, avoidance, trouble expressing feelings, criticism or contempt, feeling stuck, or heightened emotional reactions to situations.
Starting therapy may feel daunting, especially when addressing friendships, business, or church relationships. It’s tempting to walk away rather than deal with these issues. However, by working on these relationships, you set yourself up for more positive relationships in the future. You also demonstrate the value of relationships and alternatives to hate or resentment in conflict resolution.
Wellspring offers individual, interpersonal (2 people), and group sessions. Therapy employs diverse techniques and can encompass debriefing, de-escalation, active listening skills and trauma work. Modalities like DBT enhance self-awareness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. EMDR aids in processing conflicts, disagreements, or trauma, reducing triggers. Learning communication and boundary-setting skills also helps improve relationships.
You can also request educational trainings and workshops for your church or organization covering topics such as listening skills, trauma-informed care in the workplace, and regulation techniques.
