Creating Connected Relationships

Navigating a relationship with an emotionally toxic parent or partner can be incredibly draining.
The constant emotional strain and disconnection can leave you feeling deprived and unsupported, yearning for a deeper connection that’s always out of reach.
No matter how hard you try and how much you give, the void remains, leaving you emotionally hungry and unfulfilled.

You may have a mother (or father) who is present in your life, calling you constantly for help, asking your input on drama with your sibling, and it’s about their needs and agenda—not yours. Your needs aren’t even on their radar.

You may attract romantic partners who don't fully appreciate or understand you, leaving you feeling unsupported and unloved. You keep giving and they keep taking. It’s always a one way street. 

Unmet needs during childhood can impact self-esteem and well-being, leading to a pattern of overgiving and people-pleasing. These behaviors often reoccur in romantic relationships, mirroring dynamics with dysfunctional parents. Despite seeking a different outcome, the same patterns persist, causing frustration, resentment, and loneliness. Both the significant other and emotionally unavailable parent contribute to the struggle for unmet needs, creating a cycle of frustration and pain.
