Welcome to Creating Healthy Connections (CHC), the place to find the help and healing for your most important and treasured relationships.  Coming out of the dark and into the light of love and caring is one of the most important journeys you can take.   Sadly, when we become disconnected from those that matter most, it can leave us feeling sad and depressed, even anxious and hopeless. This can turn into sleepless nights, difficulty concentrating and not knowing how to manage.  Worse yet, feeling numb and shut down may cause us to merely exist or give up. Let’s face it, when we are lonely, not feeling heard, or feeling like a failure, we may feel depressed, have anxiety, PTSD and adjustment issues.  This is how important those closest to us really are.

Relationships are fraught with many challenges, everything from communication struggles to intimacy issues. If you are reaching out for help you may question your relationship with some of these questions:

What happened and how did we get so off track?

I feel as though I am just going through the motions of a relationship without real intimate connection.

It is as though we are constantly having the same arguments that goes nowhere but in circles.

I feel more alone in the relationship than when I am physically alone.

I love my partner, but I am not in love anymore and haven’t felt that sense of connection for a long time. I don’t know what to do?

Can we ever get the feelings back we once had?

These concerns and others can be addressed at CHC.  Many of the couples who successfully complete the process of EFT at CHC, experience results such as:

• improved communication
• feeling supported and understood by their partners
• finally being able to connect with each other again
• understanding the types of cyclical, intense, heated, fights they get into and learning how to stop them, thereby allowing them to enjoy their relationship and begin to get closer

A happy and healthy relationship affects all aspects of one’s life. So, depending on how your relationship problems are manifesting,  you may experience some or many of the following as a result of a secure and happy relationship:

• reduced symptoms of anxiety, depression and or PTSD
• better physical health and wellbeing
• feeling cherished by your partner and actually cherishing him/her in return
• improved sleep
• improved mood
• better and more frequent intimacy
• more confidence, decreased stress and more energy
• improved performance at work
