Relationships are hard, especially when you feel that no matter how much you try things are just not getting better. Mindful Quest is here to help, whether you are currently in a relationship and SEEKING HELP WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR PARTNER, if you have experienced a recent BREAK-UP discovered INFIDELITY or simply trying to figure out why your past relationships have not worked out.
Perhaps, your relationship feels like it has become unmanageable and either you or your partner are feeling DISCONNECTED or feel the other is TOO SENSITIVE and all the demands the relationship has put on you feel OVERWHELMING. Maybe one of you has been contemplating DIVORCE or SEPARATION and you are confused about the next step; counseling can help you gain clarity and may save your relationship by helping you turn the very thing that creates distance with your partner into growth and strength for re-connection.
At Mindful Quest you can also find SPECIALIZED SUPPORT IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED TRAUMA that has affected your past or current relationship(s). If you or your partner have experienced sexual, verbal, emotional, physical or psychological abuse, during childhood or with past partners and now find these experiences are getting in the way of your connection(s), you are not alone. Getting to understand how past and unhealed traumas play a role in your relationship(s) can help you take the power back and bring healing! Knowing how to support your partner can speed up the recovery!
Also, if you suspect you have an UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOURSELF, it is a valid reason to seek relationship counseling. We can only have relationships as healthy with others as the one we have with ourselves!
Your relationship with others is a reflections of the relationship you have with yourself. We all carry old wounds and unhealed parts that we have either forgotten about or have chosen to ignore. Partners, family and friends can trigger us in ways that point us in the direction of the path to our healing.
Some people reach such a high level of disconnection from themselves that all of a sudden they feel so lost and alone and all their other relationships begin to suffer as a result.

“Love is a constant process of tuning in, connecting, missing and misreading cues, disconnecting, repairing, and finding deeper connection. It is a dance of meeting and parting and finding each other again, minute to minute and day to day.” - Dr. Sue Johnson
If we catch the disconnection in the process and make a commitment to finding our way back to connection, we can only say we have a normal relationship with our partner.
Sometimes we can find our way back all on our own, but other times life circumstances, emotional injuries and our constant state of change as individuals gets in the way. It is then that we must enlist the help of a highly trained relationship specialist to find our way back to the path of connection once again.
Healing, learning and growing in community is going back to the roots of our human culture. We are all wired for connection and the benefit of knowing we are not alone goes beyond measure.
We are all together in our quest of meaning, purpose and meaningful connection in life. Life begins and ends for us all the same, but the in-between is where we must find each other for support along the way.
