Anxious? Avoidant? Here’s what that really means in relationships.

Have you ever felt like you care way too much in a relationship while the other person seems to care way less? Maybe you’re the one sending long texts, overthinking every interaction, or wondering where you stand.

Or maybe it’s the opposite, like you start to feel smothered the moment things feel too close or too real. You want connection, but to a point.

You aren’t crazy, and you’re definitely not alone. These patterns are more common than you think. And they often have roots in what we call attachment patterns.

You Don’t Have to Be in Crisis to Start Therapy

Therapy isn’t just for rock bottom—it’s for the stuck moments, the spirals, the “I just want something to feel different” phases of life. Whether you’re navigating big life decisions, feeling off but not sure why, or just tired of holding it all together for everyone else, therapy can help.

You don’t need to wait for a major breakdown to begin. Therapy is for the overthinkers, the emotionally exhausted, and anyone curious about why they feel the way they do. It’s a space to slow down, get honest, and make meaningful change—at your own pace.

Not sure when to start? If you’re asking that question, it might be time.
