Sarah Straus, PsyD, LPCC, NCC
You love your partner — but lately, it feels like you're stuck in survival mode.
You care about your relationship, but lately it feels like life is running the show. Kids, schedules, work, and the endless list of what needs to get done can crowd out connection until you’re mostly coordinating, not relating.
Over time, many relationships settle into roles that create distance: over-functioning, people-pleasing, gridlock, keeping score, walking on eggshells, or shutting down to cope. Resentment grows and connection thins, even when both partners are trying.
Therapy can help you name the pattern, rebuild trust, and learn concrete ways to communicate and repair—so you can feel like partners again.
