Are You And Your Partner Struggling As A Couple—And As Individuals?

Do you feel stuck in ongoing relationship conflict, seemingly with no resolution in sight? Does it seem that you and your spouse or significant other are disconnected from not only each other but also yourselves? Maybe one or both of you are struggling with anger, anxiety, depression, trauma or something else that is making it difficult to bring your best self to the relationship. It may be that your relationship no longer feels secure and supportive, and you don’t feel understood or valued by your partner. Have you tried everything you can think of, including weekly couples therapy, but nothing seems to help? Do you crave a different approach to that offers valuable, applicable guidance?

Healthy relationships can offer a sense of safety, security and connection. When you feel like the best version of yourself, you’re better equipped to perpetuate a positive, nurturing cycle in your relationship. However, it’s not always easy to set that cycle into motion. In fact, when you and your spouse or significant other are in conflict, it can be extremely difficult to break harmful patterns and restore intimacy and trust. Unresolved individual issues, including trauma and anger, can trigger heightened emotions, making productive communication difficult. And, communication issues can deepen individual emotional wounds.

Over time, many couples find themselves in crisis, unsure how to identify and address root causes of disconnection and conflict. Sometimes, it can seem that even couples counseling only skims the surface, providing temporary fixes that don’t last. If you’re feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and unsure of how to repair your relationship, you are not alone. With Crossroads’ Couples Transformation Program, it is possible to get to the root of your challenges and create a new plan for healing.
