Your Therapist Wants You to Fight Like This

In this episode, Jess and Ryan shift into the “how do we actually work with this” side of conflict. They get into the patterns couples fall into and what therapists often focus on in couples therapy room when things get tense — especially when conversations start to spiral or shut down.They explore a few ways of approaching conflict that can make it feel less overwhelming in the moment, like slowing things down, reframing what’s actually being said underneath the words, and learning how to listen without immediately reacting or defending. It’s not about getting it “perfect,” but about creating a bit more space so both people can actually hear each other.Tune in for a conversation about what it really takes to fight well 🎙️✨Click here to book a FREE consult with us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://centredself.ca/contact⁠⁠⁠⁠Hosted by: Dr Ryan Bittinger (they/them) and Dr Jess Erb (she/her)Cover art by: Una Grace Norona (she/her)Produced and edited by: Denise Danda (she/her)Follow us on Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@yourtherapistisnotokay⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
