Children Push Our Buttons

Life seems to be going along just fine. Then you have children, and eventually, your symptoms begin: a short fuse, irritability, excessive worry, low energy, overeating, binge drinking, a depressed mood….the list goes on. Of course, there are real pressures we all face when we begin raising children and throughout their childhoods. However, children have the potential to trigger in us our unresolved emotions and painful memories from our own childhoods. And if we don’t have the knowledge or resources to process those rising emotions and memories, we can develop psychological symptoms. The good news is that with effective help from an experienced psychologist, you can quickly get to the bottom of the problems that are causing your symptoms and get your life and your moods back on track. In other words, you can, with the help of an expert, put an end to your symptoms, your suffering, and the suffering you may be causing others (your children, your spouse or partner, your parents, etc.).

Only after successfully remodeling your relationship habits will you be able to change your way of treating yourself and the important people in your life. After resolving your own psychological difficulties, you will be able to maximize the likelihood that you will not traumatize your children. By dealing with your past and present emotions properly, you can avoid traumatizing your children with the fallout from your unresolved childhood trauma.

Effective psychotherapy has the power to positively impact your life and the lives of future generations.
