The holiday season is on us, and soon you’ll travel to see your loved ones for too-small slices of the year.

Will you argue, get drunk, and stew in your childhood bedroom over perceived slights, wasting that $1000 plane ride? Will your spouse awkwardly absorb your anger or tears about the disaster of dinner?

Or are you the spouse absorbing anger in a house + family not your own? Feeling powerless to help, tired of standing around awkardly?

Or maybe it’s the drowning sensation that you feel trickling down your back when you realize that your parents still think of you as a child–and yet, you have to have the “When you die” conversation with them? Or — the guardianship conversation for those of you with parents with Alzheimer’s.

Then there’s the blended family ick that happens–how do you talk to people who are perfectly nice but you don’t know them well enough to feel comfortable?

Are you tired of losing your shit every year? Let’s fix it! 

Practice how it will go ahead of time with me, a seasoned family & couple’s therapist. We’ll chat for a few minutes about how it usually goes, then we’ll figure out graceful ways to dodge the usual shit flying from the fan.
