Send us a textTraining to be a therapist can have a profound impact on relationships. In this episode, I address a subscriber's question about how therapy training affects romantic and close relationships. While I can't provide specific advice, I offer reflections on the potential effects and how to navigate them.Therapy training can help us develop better communication skills and boundaries, which can really benefit our relationships, but it's important to acknowledge that change may not always be easy, especially in long-standing relationships. Ultimately, therapy training can lead to personal growth and improved relationships, but I think it's important to approach it with realistic expectations and a willingness to work on ourselves. Let me know your thoughts as ever, I'd love to hear them!Here's the subscriber's question: 'I'm currently going through training to become a therapist (very early on) I'm a little concerned that once I'm super aware of my relationships and my personality etc, that I'm going to try and change my wife / give advice to, or push ideas onto her, around her personality traits and I'd obviously like to leave my personal relationship alone. How do you navigate seeing traits in someone close to you, that you dislike or don't align with?'Thank you for listening.
