Quick Links for Relationships Clinic
Relationships go through different phases over the course of their existence, with some of these phases bringing more challenges than others. At times relationships can feel fractured and conflicted, with arguments and distance replacing previous feelings of intimacy and support.
The causes of relationship difficulties can be wide ranging, with factors that include stress regarding either (or both) partners’ families, work stress, disagreements regarding parenting, one or both partners not feeling valued or appreciated, infidelity, addiction, and mental health difficulties being among the most commonly seen.
Other relationships like those with family members, friends and work colleagues can also be a source of stress in one’s life, and it is important to acknowledge this and get support if you feel your relationships are affecting your mental health in a negative way.
