Creekside Therapeutics’ Post

We've all been there where our therapist tells us not to scorekeep, but old habits die hard! 😅 In relationships, it's all too easy to start tallying who did what, whether it's chores, emotional support, or even who apologized first. But scorekeeping can lead to resentment and distance instead of fostering love and understanding. At Life Collective Counselling, we encourage couples to shift the focus from counting points to building a supportive partnership. Remember, successful relationships thrive on teamwork, empathy, and open communication. Let’s celebrate each other’s efforts instead of keeping score! Together, we can create a more loving, connected relationship that brings out the best in all those involved. #RelationshipGoals #HealthyCommunication #CouplesTherapy #EmotionalSupport #MindfulRelationships #Teamwork #LoveAndGrowth #TherapyHumour #ConflictResolution #CouplesCounselling

How often do we bottle up our emotions? Fear, guilt, confusion – these feelings can feel overwhelming, especially when we think we have to face them alone. But here's the truth: half the battle is won when we express ourselves. ️ Whether it's to a trusted friend, family member, therapist, or even a safe online space like the confession boxx, sharing our struggles is a powerful step towards healing. Think about it: how many times have you felt lighter simply by talking about a burden you were carrying? Don't be afraid to express yourself! Let's break down the stigma and create a culture of open communication. Shakti Dharni has shared a very beautiful message with us embracing the Power of Expression and how we can find strength in Sharing.😇 #mentalhealth #vulnerability #communication #community #strength #mentalhealthawareness #wellbeing #mentalwellness #yourfeelingsarevalid #confession

What does it mean when we say we ‘crave’ connection in our relationships? Does this relate to your physical connection, emotional connection, or quality time? Or is what we really crave attunement in our relationship? In the context of relationships, attunement involves being truly present and in tune with your partner, similar to empathy. When we are emotionally in tune with our partner, we are better able to deeply understand and even feel our partners emotions. So, now the real question is, how do we reach emotional attunement? One actionable step you can take towards attunement today is the practice of active listening. When you are talking with your partner about deeper issues, do they have your full attention or are you multi-tasking? As your partner is speaking, are you truly listening to what they are saying, or are you thinking about your response? When you respond, are you supporting your partner or are you telling them what to do differently? When we practice active listening, aim to go into these conversations with the mindset of ‘seek to understand rather than to be understood’. Listen to what your partner is saying, reflect back the emotions you hear and sense, help your partner feel seen and heard, validate their experience. If you are seeking to connect with your partner further and would like additional support, please contact me for additional support and services. https://lnkd.in/gAnV-pes #mentalhealth #connection #coaching #relationships #activelistening #couplestherapy #counseling #communicationskills #communication

"Assertive communication is about finding the balance between passivity and aggression." It's expressing your thoughts, feelings, and needs clearly and respectfully while valuing the perspectives of others. Embrace your voice, stand firm in your truth, and foster stronger connections through effective dialogue. Remember, confidence and kindness can coexist beautifully. 😇 #assertiveness #effectivecommunication #speakup #healthyboundaries #assertivecommunication #communication #misunderstanding #miscommunication #upfront #speak #voiceyouropinion #therapybysimran #therapist #mentalhealth #new #clearcommunication #talk https://lnkd.in/gjgBUpeT
