Relationships and substance abuse often lead to a deeply strained environment. Couples find themselves trapped in painful cycles that erode trust, intimacy, and the vital connection they share.

When you're navigating the dating world, you might notice patterns in how you connect with potential partners. Maybe you pull away when someone gets too close, or perhaps you worry constantly about whether they're losing interest.

Emotional distance in a relationship can feel like a slow drift—subtle at first, then isolating. One partner may pull away, creating a sense of disconnection that leaves the other feeling unheard and unseen.

Boundaries are important for outlining guidelines that meet both your and your partner's needs. They also help bring balance and respect to the mix. Now, where do you begin? We’re here to help.
