Starting Breakup therapy

What is breakup therapy?

Breakup therapy from our Thriveworks Charlotte therapists helps people process the loss that comes with a breakup. In addition, it can help them to better understand what was wrong as well as what was right in their relationship so that they’re able to move forward.

How does breakup therapy work?

Breakup therapy works by offering a safe space for people to explore the pain and changes that can accompany a breakup. It also works by equipping individuals with healthy coping mechanisms such as self-reflection and relaxation techniques to replace harmful (or maladaptive) coping mechanisms.

Is breakup therapy conducted in person or online?

Breakup therapy from the therapists at Thriveworks in Charlotte, NC is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does breakup therapy last?

The amount of breakup therapy sessions will vary from one person to the next, depending on their specific needs. However, it typically lasts for several weeks or months.

Counseling and Therapy for Breakups – Therapists in Charlotte

Dealing with relationship breakups can be harsh and lonely. Even relatively amicable breakups can be difficult to go through. Whether a recent decision to breakup was one-sided or mutual, involved a short-term relationship or a long-term relationship, involved two mentally healthy persons or not, breaking up is one of the most emotional things we can experience—and it’s reasonable to need a little help processing that experience. Breakup counseling can help.

The more serious a relationship, the more difficult the fall out from the breakup. Cohabitation, children, length of relationship, general happiness level while in the relationship—all of these factors and more influence the way the breakup is handled by each partner. In fact, breakups are one of the many situations Thriveworks Charlotte counselors help people with all the time. Reach out today for breakup counseling and support.

Symptoms of a Tough Breakup

All the worries discussed above may lead to the following symptoms that are noticeable in persons who have recently experienced a breakup:

  • Sleeplessness
  • Lack of motivation
  • Unwillingness to associate with other people
  • Depression
  • Hopelessness
  • Lack of interest in planning for the future

Handling the complexity of these feelings alone can be overwhelming. Breakup counseling can help you gain a clearer perspective and develop a plan to manage your new life in a productive way.

How Breakup Counseling Works

A therapist experienced at breakup counseling will give you his or her undivided attention in order to help you overcome all physical and psychological challenges. If you are feeling lonely and emotionally disturbed, you can count on your therapist’s deep interest in your problems as he or she works hard to help you.

Consider your relationship therapist an understanding, compassionate person who knows exactly what you are going through and is willing to offer a helping hand until you achieve a full recovery. At Thriveworks Charlotte, our therapists know you can heal—and they can help.

Outlined below are some areas breakup counseling will help you strengthen as you move forward:

  • Self-confidence—This will help you embrace yourself as you are; no one can have a great relationship without first loving and admiring themselves
  • Problem-solving skills—If you have been relying on a partner to assist in solving certain problems—from which electrician to call to which new car to purchase—it may feel difficult to be totally in charge of making your own decisions. Working with a therapist can help you learn problem-solving skills, enabling you to confidently and thoughtfully make these decisions on your own.
  • Self-efficacy—Strongly related to self-confidence, this self-assurance that you can live life on your own terms, completing tasks and achieving goals, is essential to a mentally healthy life.

Scheduling Thriveworks Charlotte Breakup Counseling

Breaking up is hard to do, but with counseling, that struggle can end with a happier, healthier you who is able to continue forward independently. Later, if you choose to, you’ll be able to enter another relationship in a healthy, engaged fashion. To get started, give Thriveworks Charlotte a call today. We don’t have a waiting list, and can usually get you in for your first appointment within the week. If you are struggling, there’s no need to wait any longer to seek help. We look forward to helping you become the best you can be.
