Communication & Conflict

Communication and conflict go together and are the two most common issues in relationships.

Conflict comes from ongoing poor communication skills which include not listening, not validating the other person’s feelings and leaving the other person not feeling heard.

This creates resentment, criticism and contempt.

When a person continuously has their feelings, opinions and actions dismissed, not validated, acknowledged or appreciated, they begin to pull away, become distant, dismissive, and disconnected.

They become two lonely flat mates living together and or raising children.

They are no longer friends, much less lovers.

To repair the hurt, they need to validate each others feelings so wounds can begin to heal.

Conflict is about needs not being met, feelings not being acknowledged and opinions not being heard.

Relationships need respect, compromise, forgiveness, unconditional love, encouragement and support.

I can teach you the skills needed to bring harmony back into your relationship.
