Loneliness can hit us even in a social situation.

When our needs to foster deep connections where we relate to others and them to us aren’t met, we can feel lonely. Inevitably, social isolation accelerates feelings of loneliness.

  • So, how can we make connections with people we relate to?

7 Reasons Why Couples Therapy Can Be a Healthy Choice for Any Relationship

Relationships are not always a walk in the park. Some days are better than others, and in some cases it is unavoidable. But, that doesn’t mean the relationship should end or proceed while the involved people are unhappy.  

How often have you heard people suggest therapy to a couple because they are going through a tough time? Probably a lot. 

Therapy is often treated like some sort of medication that you take only when things are not going well. This approach is totally wrong.

Therapy has a wide range of benefits that not only focus on helping us get out of dark places, but that also help us get a better understanding of those spaces. Therapy might not always help us master how to avoid unfavorable situations, but it surely can help us maneuver through those circumstances. 

At a personal level, it creates a safe and supportive environment that allows one to address any personal issues they might be dealing with (in some cases unconsciously)

One Positive Action

Ask and Hold Space

When someone asks how you're doing, what do you usually say? Probably "fine" or "good" or "busy." It's the easiest answer, and honestly, most people aren't really asking anyway, just being polite.

But every now and then, someone asks and you can tell they actually want to know. They're not waiting for their turn to talk or checking their phone. They're just there, really listening. Those moments stick with you because they're so rare.

Real connection doesn't always come from long conversations or perfect advice, but rather, from giving someone the space to speak and feel heard. You can be that person for someone else. Ask your friend how they're really doing. Ask what's been on their mind lately. Then just listen. Don't jump in with advice or your own similar story. Let there be silence if that's what they need to gather their thoughts. Show them that whatever they say, you're not going anywhere.

When you hold space like this, it builds trust. The other person realizes they don't have to filter their feelings around you, they can just be honest. That kind of presence deepens a relationship in ways that last.

Choose someone in your life and reach out to them today. Ask one meaningful question and give them your full attention as they answer. You don't have to fix anything. Just be there, open and listening. Sometimes being heard is what heals.
