UNDERSTAND YOUR RELATIONSHIP PATTERNS
Begin by exploring your current relationship dynamics and how past experiences may be shaping your emotional responses. Your therapist will help you identify your attachment style, communication habits, and personal boundaries. Together, you’ll set goals that reflect the kind of relationships you want to cultivate—whether romantic, familial, or platonic.

BUILD EMOTIONAL CLARITY & BOUNDARIES

Tools may include emotional regulation techniques, assertiveness training, and exercises to build trust and vulnerability. You’ll also work on building self-awareness and setting boundaries that protect your peace and promote connection.

CREATE HEALTHY, MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS
In the final phase, your therapist will guide you in applying these new skills to real-life situations. You’ll explore how to maintain emotional safety in relationships, rebuild trust, and show up authentically without over-functioning or losing yourself. This program supports you in creating more secure, connected, and nourishing relationships—starting from within.

Building and nurturing healthy relationships is essential for emotional and psychological well-being. Relationship problems can significantly impact mental health, leading to increased anxiety, depression, and stress. Unresolved conflicts may cause feelings of isolation, low self-esteem, and emotional instability, ultimately affecting overall well-being. Engaging in open communication, practicing empathy, and seeking help from relationship experts can strengthen connections and foster resilience, ultimately enhancing one’s overall quality of life.

Not sure where to start?
Try a self-assessment.
Our self-assessment is adapted from the Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS), a widely used tool for assessing an individual’s perceptions of his/her relationship with an intimate partner. Use of the assessment is anonymous. Our online assessment includes guidance regarding scoring as well as suggested follow-up based on the outcome of the assessment.
Always keep in mind that there are a variety of factors that can influence the reliability of the assessment, that your individual scores may vary over time, and, above all, that it is an assessment rather than a diagnostic tool. As such, this and similar self-guided assessments are not substitutes for professional guidance and should never be considered definitive.
