In the world of modern relationships, the journey of finding a suitable partner can often be daunting and overwhelming. Many of us enter relationships with the desire to present our best selves, fearing that revealing our vulnerabilities and imperfections might scare potential partners away. Leading with, “I have a tendency to be really lazy and I hate washing up” has probably never been top of mind when meeting someone new… However, philosopher Alain de Botton urges us to take a different approach. He encourages us to embrace our true selves, including the crazy parts, and share these aspects with our potential partners.

Relationships can be both fulfilling and challenging, and it’s not uncommon to experience periods of where things feel difficult. Understanding the different phases of love can provide insight into why your relationship might be going through a tough time.

Finding a good therapist is as important as finding a good doctor or accountant. Not all of us are created equally so I have put together some tips for you to consider.

You deserve to sit with someone who listens, who is impacted by your story and who allows you to feel empowered about your life once again! You also want to start feeling like the therapy is supporting you and you are starting to develop greater insight in to the way you do your life.
