TITLE

How To Navigate Challenges in Relationships

GUEST

Solo episode—Patricia Young

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Navigating conflict and having competing needs in relationships can be difficult. How do we evaluate if our friendships are meeting our needs? I provide criteria that may be helpful when evaluating relationships and compatibility. What do we do when there is a stressor in a relationship, and it causes a breakdown in the relationship? We aren’t often taught how to choose relationships; what to do when our needs aren’t getting met, and as Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs), we tend to be loyal (sometimes to a fault), and we feel guilty renegotiating relationships, or leaving relationships when they don’t work for us anymore. I provide information to Dr. Elaine Aron’s website if you’re curious to see if you’re a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP).

BIO

Patricia Young, LCSW is a therapist in San Diego who is in private practice, and sees clients who live in California via online therapy. Patricia works primarily with Highly Sensitive People (HSP) helping them understand their HSPness, and to turn their perceived shortcomings into superpowers. Patricia is passionate about providing education to help HSPs and non-HSPs understand and truly appreciate all the gifts we have to offer.

HIGHLIGHTS

Sometimes relationships work until there is a stressor, and the relationship (or the skills that one or both of the individuals have) cannot tolerate the stressor, and this can cause a relationship to decline or end

Values to check for in relationships

  • Depth of processing
  • Similar interests
  • Does the person have the capacity to manage intense feelings?
  • What is their emotional literacy (emotional intelligence)
    • are they able to identify their feelings
  • Are they introspective
  • Do they have insight
    • Into their own behavior
    • Into their triggers
  • Can they handle when there is conflict
  • Can they handle when there are competing needs
  • How vulnerable are they willing to be
  • How much time do they want to spend together in the relationship
    • How available are they
  • Are they dependable
  • Can you count on them when you need them
