Are You Tired of going from relationship to relationship, feeling unhappy, on the verge of breaking up your unhappy home ?
Hello! My name is Katherine Baker and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, but you might call me a transformer, a fear buster and a builder of love connections.
Are the Pursuer in your relationship? When a disagreement occurs, you reaches for connection by moving towards your partner. You like to talk about the problem and actively pursue ways to look at what’s happening right now. The more you talk, the less you feel heard, seen or understood by your partner. Hello Hello I’m talking to you…… Crickets… Kinda feels like you’re talking and that blank stare feels like nobody is home. Or are you the Withdrawer in your relationship? You move away from your partner or conflict by minimizing, deflecting, defending, shutting down, or walking away. You said under your breath, “Can you see that I don’t want to fight? Can you stop yelling, blaming me for everything that’s wrong in our relationship?” Exhausting right?
I work couples who are at their wits end with each other and facing the ending of their relationship. You may have worked with other therapists in the past and did not find the healing you and your partner we’re looking for. It’s not your fault! The problem is other therapists offer trauma healing through working with the mind. We are best able to overcome trauma, starting not with the mind but rather the body. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have trained in Emotional Focused Therapy for Couples, Brain Spotting, Trauma Informed Yoga, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and talk therapy.
I work specifically with couples who feel frustrated, chronically irritated, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected from each other. Who’s relationships are drama filled relationships. People who go from relationship, friendship or job seeking happiness. Partners whose work and personal life are completely out of sync. Couples who feel stuck with each other out of fear. Fear to make the wrong decision, fear of making people mad at you, fear of disturbing the status quo, fear of conflict, of pissing your partner off or being a failure!
Trauma from our childhood (emotional, physical or neglect) can create behavior problems in our adulthood. Commonly overlooked causes of traumas, surgery, domestic violence, bullying, the sudden death of someone close, the breakup of a significant relationship, or a humiliating or deeply disappointing experience, especially if someone was deliberately cruel.
Trauma symptoms include fear, feeling insecure, irritability, insomnia or nightmares, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, experiencing guilt, shame, self-blame and feeling disconnected or numb.
After 3-4 sessions working with me, you and your partner will feel more in control of your emotions, less overwhelmed and more empowered to take control of your relationship.
Are you ready? To reclaim your relationship.
I know from helping countless couples find the love that brought them together, that I can help you too.
That’s why I hope you call me for your free consultation today.
