Dating

The need for affection and companionship is a human trait that often feels as if it outweighs others; and while love and all the encompasses are certainly a source of joy, relationships aren’t always as simple. Navigating romantic relationships requires a certain level of awareness and commitment. Often, individuals who are open to dating, or are already in the ties of a relationship might require counseling to make better choices and engage in healthier dating behaviors.

Signs your dating life could benefit from counseling:

There are couples who are in long term relationships, or relationships which appear to be sustainable, but are in a relationship which may have unhealthy traits. Below are certain indications that your dating life could benefit from counseling:

  • There’s a communication gap that makes interaction difficult.

  • There are trust issues that need to be addressed.

  • There is a reluctance to compromise of any sort on either or both sides.

  • The same arguments are occurring over and over with no sign of resolution.

  • Certain unhealthy patterns are followed in every relationship or situation.

How can we help?

Engaging in romantic relationships is an emotional process, which requires a level of self-awareness and regulation from both partners. Seeking out the help of a mental health professional can truly help in gaining insight into oneself and identify patterns and dynamics that are hurtful and unproductive for our dating life.
