When you enter a relationship, you bring your hopes and dreams with you. You also bring your unresolved issues. Two people in love, each one looking to the other to fulfill their hopes and dreams. Isn’t that what relationships promise to do? Solve your problems, make you better? No. That's a misunderstanding, and it's not fair. So put away that steamer trunk full of your well preserved baggage, and realize you've got some real work to do if you want your relationship to be what you envision. Your baggage is your responsibility to resolve, so you can give your partner what they deserve. The best of you. Isn't that what you want?
I've worked with many couples who believed their partner was supposed to "fix" them. That's a mistake. It can ruin the relationship. Your person can bring out the best in you, but your baggage is yours alone. This is where I come in. I will help you understand what's causing your triggers, and give you the tools to control your emotions and your life.
Deciding to face the things about yourself that you don't understand can be a daunting task. It takes courage to challenge yourself to make the necessary changes that will improve you and enhance your relationship. If you're tired of dragging around that steamer trunk full of your well preserved baggage, let it go for good. CALL ME, let's work together.
