Individual Relationship Counseling in Atlanta, GA
You’re certainly someone that people can love.
-Fred Rogers
Being Single is Hard
You might be single and looking to date. You may also worry about being alone forever. Or, settling for someone you don’t actually love because you don’t have the energy to keep looking. Plus, you may have chosen toxic partners in the past. You may have moved from one relationship to the next never feeling actually satisfied. Or, you may have been hurt in past relationships before and these feelings make it hard for you to want to date again. It can all be so overwhelming!
But, Being in a Healthy Long-Term Relationship Isn’t Always Easy Either
You may find yourself getting bored with your partner or getting triggered by things they do and say. Or, you may often choose partners that aren’t right for you. They may be unavailable or wind up being toxic and harmful to your mental health. You ignore that feeling in your gut and the red flags and push through anyway only to get hurt in the end.
Your struggles may come from questions surrounding your identity. Or, you may be questioning your sexual preferences and who you’re attracted to. This life transition may lead you to stop dating or cause problems in your current relationship. It can be hard to sort through all your thoughts and feelings going through your head.
Regardless of the Situation, You Feel Lost and Lonely
You want to be loved and understood for who you are at your core. Everyone around you seems to be in a relationship or repulsed by the idea altogether. As a result, you feel alone in your struggles. You’re not sure who you can talk to or who will understand what you’re going through.
The good news? An individual relationship counselor can help you navigate your challenges. Together, they can help you achieve your personal goals.

What is Individual Relationship Counseling?
You likely assumed relationship therapy is for people who are in relationships, right? But, individuals can benefit from relationship therapy too. In individual relationship counseling, you will work to improve your self-confidence and self-worth. You will also learn tools to help you cope with the things that are contributing to your struggles. This may mean working through past hurt or examining perfectionist tendencies. Or, it may be examining and having a safe space to talk about your identity questions. You don’t need a partner to benefit from relationship therapy. In truth, it’s helpful for almost everyone.
