Well, let’s start with what is unhealthy love?
Unhealthy love is negative and aggressive. Yes, you can salvage the relationship. But, this is typically only possible through professional couples therapy. And, this means having all parties fully committed. Often, unhealthy love is a pattern of communication that partners learned from watching their parents fight in unhealthy ways. And, gay couples, lesbian, transgender, and all types of people need help with creating healthy love. Think long term. Therefore, I highly recommend one year of weekly couples therapy to repair unhealthy love and negative communication. So, if you are a monogamous man and woman, we can help. Or, if you are looking for LGBTQ couples counseling in Niantic, Connecticut, we can help! Overall, we specialize in intimate connections, communication skills, and can help you get clear on your relationship.

What does unhealthy love look like?
Perhaps, your partner says, “You’re fat. You have gained a lot of weight. I am not attracted to you anymore.” You can feel defensive. And, you might even feel disrespect, loss, or even feel tossed aside. However, what they are really they are trying to say is, “I’m scared you are hurting yourself with your food choices. And, I love you so much and I want you to love yourself. Is there anything we can do to team up? Could we buy more kale and less ice cream?” Think about how you can say what you want to say in a kind way. Instead, don’t change your partner. Instead, focus on their positive qualities and our team can help you with the parts you want to change. Call/Text 860-451-9364 for holistic LGBTQ couples counseling in Niantic, Connecticut.
