"Are you struggling to connect with your partner in a meaningful way? 👇

In this video, Fiachra Figs O'Sullivan, a therapist specializing in abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, couples/marital issues, as well as grief, loss, and bereavement, talks about how couples counseling can help!

According to Fiachra Figs O'Sullivan, the first step in helping a couple improve their relationship is to help them feel safe with each other. 🫂

This involves calming their ""limbic systems,"" which are responsible for the body's fight or flight response.

Fiachra explains that when a couple's limbic systems feel threatened, they may react defensively, leading to arguments and misunderstandings.

However, when they feel safe, they are able to connect more deeply and work together as a TEAM.
