Holidays, expectations and the pressure to please everyone
As spring holidays approach, many couples feel pulled in several directions at once by different parts of the family. Trying to satisfy everyone often leaves both partners drained and quietly resentful. In online couples therapy we give you space to talk honestly about what you both want from this time, beyond obligations. We explore old stories and loyalties that make it so hard to say no to certain relatives. Together we look for ways to share the emotional and practical load instead of one person silently carrying most of it. We also practise setting boundaries in a way that protects your relationship rather than blaming one partner for being “too soft” or “too harsh”. When you stand more firmly as a team, external pressure loses part of its power. If upcoming holidays already feel stressful instead of nourishing, an online session can help you design a version that works better for both of you.
