Long-term therapy is a format of supportive relationships in which qualitative changes are possible. Changes in willpower, in simple mechanical doing of actions, if they have an effect, are short-term. If the source of the problem is not found, it may shoot elsewhere. This is similar to traditional medicine, which does not look at the whole person, but only treats what hurts. And then there is a high probability that one thing will be “cured”, but in another place it will get sick. After all, we are our whole body and all our relationships. If in relationships with loved ones you cannot build boundaries and freely express your thoughts and desires, then this experience is simply nowhere to be found. And recommendations to use some exercises will sound reasonable, but still at the wrong time. After all, there is more than enough information everywhere now, but how to use it if you are afraid that a loved one will be offended or angry, that they will not be able to withstand the intensity of passions and will leave. And you want to change something and you are scared. The cost of a mistake is a possible loss of relationships. The solution is to “practice on cats,” or rather on a relationship with a person who can definitely withstand your feelings - anger, indignation, despair, confusion, etc. and will not abandon you, will support and accept you. In long-term therapy, you can learn to say no and ask for what is important, accept support and get angry, come closer and move away, truly open up and be genuinely interested in others. This is an amazing experience that will be yours and, based on it, you will be able to build relationships outside the office in a new way. If you find your person, that specialist with whom you will feel safe and willing to take risks.
