What brings people in
Clients often bring patterns they are tired of repeating. The details differ, and these come up often.
-
Communication
Difficulty saying what you need, or feeling unheard.
-
Boundaries
Trouble setting limits, or holding them once they are set.
-
Trust and closeness
Wanting closeness and finding it hard to trust.
-
Repeating patterns
The same argument, or the same kind of relationship, again and again.
These patterns can show up with a partner, with family, or with friends. Lindsey’s practice helps people explore what happens within themselves and between them and others.
Couples and families
The American Counseling Association describes couples, marriage, and family counseling as helping partners work through conflict and improve communication, and family therapy as extending that work to the whole family.1 Relationship work can also start with you alone.
Lindsey’s practice offers individual, couples, and family therapy. Marina Fried lists couples among the people she serves, and her profile describes work with individuals, couples, and families. Call (732) 440-9330 to ask whether it fits your situation.
Lindsey’s work draws on attachment and on how past experiences shape present patterns. In relationship work that means looking at how closeness, trust, and safety show up for you now.
Relationship changes can also come with major life transitions. The life transitions therapy page covers that side of the work.
How therapy for relationships works
Lindsey’s practice combines several approaches for relationship work. Each plan is shaped around what you are dealing with.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Builds skills for communicating your needs, handling strong feelings in the moment, and strengthening boundaries.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Looks at the thoughts and habits that feed conflict and builds more flexible ways of responding.
- Mindfulness
Practices for pausing and noticing what is happening before you react.
- Relational therapy
Looks at what happens within you and between you and other people.
- Attachment-informed approaches
Look at how closeness, trust, and safety show up in your relationships.
