Breaking Generational Patterns: How RLT Helps Heal Family Dynamics
Family relationships can be some of the most rewarding—and the most challenging—connections we experience. Many of us carry patterns and behaviors learned from our families of origin, often without even realizing it. These generational patterns, whether they involve communication styles, coping mechanisms, or responses to conflict, can have a profound impact on our relationships as adults.
What Is Relational Life Therapy? A Compassionate Approach to Healing Relationships
When it comes to relationships, no one is immune to challenges. Whether you’re navigating the early stages of a partnership, celebrating decades together, or working through difficult seasons, relationships require intention, care, and sometimes, a little extra help. At Holland Counseling Group, we believe in the power of Relational Life Therapy (RLT) to create meaningful, lasting change. RLT offers a direct and active approach, focusing on communication strategies and conflict resolution that couples often struggle to put into real practice. Unlike traditional therapy models, RLT doesn't get caught up in the "fight of the week" but instead digs deeper to understand how and why couples approach conflict.
