About It's Complicated

In 2019, two therapists set out to tackle a complicated problem.

The psychiatrist Carl Jung once wrote that, “Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble”. One does not have to be a therapist, though, to realize that life is complicated. But finding the right therapist, who you can build a strong relationship with, shouldn’t have to be. This is the founding principle of It’s Complicated.Since our start, we've helped over 23,000 clients and counting, offering thousands of free crisis support hours, and built thriving therapy communities in Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Munich, and Athens.

Learn more about therapists who can help with Relationships

What are relationship issues?

Relationship issues encompass a broad range of challenges that couples or individuals may face in their interpersonal relationships. These issues can arise in various forms, including communication difficulties, conflicts, trust issues, intimacy concerns, and differences in values or goals. Relationship issues can significantly impact emotional well-being, satisfaction, and overall quality of life. Recognising and addressing these issues early on is essential for fostering healthy and fulfilling relationships.

 

Effective treatment for relationship issues

Addressing relationship issues requires a collaborative and compassionate approach that focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening connection. Effective treatments may include exploring relationship dynamics, improving communication skills, resolving conflicts, and rebuilding trust. Therapy offers a safe and non-judgmental space to explore and understand the underlying dynamics contributing to relationship issues. Therapists can teach practical communication skills, guide individuals in managing conflicts productively, and help rebuild trust through open communication and consistent actions.

 

Find the right therapist on It’s Complicated

It may take some exploration and open communication with potential therapists to discover the approach and therapist that aligns best with your needs and preferences. Trusting your instincts and being patient with yourself throughout this process can help alleviate some of the overwhelm and lead to a smoother therapeutic journey. If you are interested in therapy to assist you in improving your life quality, It's Complicated operates in nearly 100 languages, offering both online and in-person sessions. With a diverse network of over 1,500 mental health professionals spanning 80+ countries, you can easily connect with accredited psychologists who can support you in managing your relationship.
