Practice Description
You feel scared and alone as you lay awake at night worrying about the future of your marriage. You've tried to clarify misunderstandings, but every time you explain yourself, it just makes things worse. Being tearful and on the verge of panic feel like the new normal, and you're frustrated that your positive intentions and attempts at improving the relationship just lead to more distance. You're afraid of losing your relationship and the one who matters most to you.

When you try talking things through, the conversations spiral out of control. So you've tried not caring and going with the flow, but issues keep getting swept under the rug. Using EFT couples therapy, I help partners learn to navigate emotional triggers in their relationship so they can communicate clearly and become more confident and comfortable again.

Therapy with me is an investment of your time and money. Instead of quick tips that leave you feeling like you've failed, I'll help you build new emotional muscle memory so you can reliably and consistently find your way out of tense conversations to more clarity and closeness. Let's stop the communication spiral you're in. Book a consult through my website at www.ElizabethPolinskyCounseling.com
