Hi, I’m Katie Ziskind, and I own Wisdom Within Counseling. You can learn more about us at WisdomWithinCT.com. This video is all about couples. So you might be struggling, you might be feeling lonely. You might be wondering if your partner even still loves you. Also, after a big fight or conflict, you might feel hopeless.
Like you might wonder if you even have a future together, because the fight is just so intense and hurtful. As well, we work with couples that are struggling with LGBTQIA+. So if you're in a same-sex relationship, we specialize with those unique challenges, when it comes to parenting and in-laws.
A lot of couples struggle with what we call resentment. Resentment is a feeling where you feel very negative towards your partner, and it's hard to think of your partner in a fond way or an affectionate way. You might just feel completely exhausted from work, burned out from parenting, and have needs, but your partner is just not meeting them in the way that you need them to meet them.
So a lot of times we work with high conflict couples that have intense emotions like anger, sadness, jealousy, frustration and it just comes out in this big snowball blow up of a fight. So if you struggle with feeling close and communication, and your partner is just yelling at you, and you don't really know what they're feeling, our marriage counselors are experts in helping couples improve their communication, and also understand trauma. A lot of times while couples are fighting, they're fighting about an issue that they think they're working on, but really they're just going in a circle.
So for instance, you and your spouse might be fighting about what time something should happen, but you're really talking about a shared value system, meaningful connection and emotional intimacy. And the cycle of fighting and the pattern of negative communication prevents emotional communication, which is the key to building security. And we help couples build meaningful connection, security, safety in each other and truly learn how to support each other.
So say your partner is yelling, right now you might be yelling back. But through couples therapy with an expert marriage counselor your therapist can really help you understand when your partner is available, and when they are too burned out and not available to talk with you.
Your marriage counselor can also teach you as a spouse how to help your partner regulate their emotions, how to be encouraging, how to be your partners emotional support after they do that for themselves. So we teach you skills like gentle startup, which is a skill that a lot of couples need. A gentle startup skill is really easy to implement once you learn it. If you, let's say you are talking about something, and you go to your partner in a way that might be exciting or you might feel really passionate, but to your partner receiving that, they take that as anger or aggression.
So we teach a gentle startup skill, where you go to your partner, you offer them a compliment, you put a hand on their knee or on their shoulder, you check in with them, see how they're feeling. And then you share what you might want to share in a calm way.
A lot of partners don't realize the demands or pressures they're putting on their spouse. So we can as an observer kind of help pinpoint problematic conversations, the way in which those conversations need to be happening, to help you reach your goals of closeness, and teach you skills, simple skills. It's like the education you didn't learn in math and science in school. We don't really have a place to learn how to have nurturing loving relationships. And childhood often doesn't teach us how to do that either.
Maybe you had a parent who was an alcoholic and verbally abused you, or you had a parent that was emotionally neglectful and withheld love. And all of these childhood traumas play a role in your marriage and relationship in a romantic way today. So we can get really playful and help you start to develop a strong foundation for a loving, nurturing, committed long-term marriage. So if you're looking to learn more about holistic marriage counseling, we would love to support you.
