Work with a Psychologist in Newton, MA
Consider this hypothetical: You were always a die-hard believer in true love. You watched the love your parents put on display for each other and hoped that one day you would find your one true love, too. But then, suddenly, they decided to separate. The announcement of their divorce left you crumbled. It was an end-of-childhood moment that challenged everything you knew to be true about life and love. Now, you harbor a fear of commitment. Anytime someone shows interest, you shy away and shut their pursuit down. You wish that you could let someone in but there’s just too much at stake, you tell yourself.
Nothing in life is quite as important as you think it is while you’re thinking about it.” –Daniel Kahneman
This fear of commitment as demonstrated in the example above is a common problem in today’s world. And often, it is a direct effect of a family member’s divorce. The thing is that this isn’t an impossible problem to overcome—it might be tough, but with the help of a psychologist, you can overcome your fear of commitment and go on to develop a loving, meaningful relationship of your own. This is a psychologist’s job: To assess your unique needs as well as your goals and then to develop a treatment plan that suits those needs and goals.
