If you’re in a relationship, you probably know that they take a lot of work – and a lot of compromises. Relationships are two-way streets. One person cannot be the only one giving and evolving. Both partners must put effort into the partnership in order to make it last. Take Alaina and Sean, for example. Alaina had been in a past relationship that was emotionally exhausting. She told herself that in her next relationship, she was going to have higher expectations for her partner. Now dating Sean, things are going much better. However, she doesn’t like that Sean doesn’t put effort into date nights and she feels like she’s the only one ever doing something. Sometimes she feels guilty for asking him to put in more effort but realizes he’s the one who needs to make a change.

While both Alaina and Sean have some growing to do independently, there is also a need to grow and evolve together. Sometimes too many arguments add up and you resent your partner. Other times you don’t feel like your partner is putting in enough effort. Or maybe you both struggle to see eye to eye on some things and don’t know how to facilitate healthy communication.

It is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others.” – Dalai Lama

What does a Marriage Counselor or Couples Therapist do?

Not Sure If Your Problem Can Be Helped? Chances Are, It Can
