Have you ever felt that you were the only one in the relationship who cares when it comes to Birthdays Christmas and Anniversaries!
Do you always buy that special card in advance, choose a gift that you know your partner would like, cook a special surprise dinner or book their favourite restaurant and enjoy seeing them happy with all you have done getting it right?
However you know that when it comes to your Birthday Christmas or anniversary gifts your partner will forget or if they remember the card, it will not be special and the gift is likely to be something practical for the home or garden, not something personal for you.
Leading up to that special day do you start to get upset, feel unhappy and even get angry at the thought that history will repeat itself and you will yet again be disappointed, hurt and angry with them.
Why let this happen?
Is it to punish yourself, self-sabotage or punish them? so that you can say how they do not care or how selfish they are when you are so caring and thoughtful?
Think about this honestly, what do you gain by this and what do you achieve?
Another miserable day!
We are all individuals, we think differently, feel differently, some things are more important to one person than to others.
Forgetting that special day does not make them a bad person.
If you are able to share what makes you happy and help your loved ones by showing and telling them instead of leading them into a trap you will both be happier and it will lead to your relationship being happier and more fulfilled.
I went to see Jacqui last year as I had some issues around self-esteem and felt that I was procrastinating. Jacqui was brilliant, we went through techniques that helped me to clear things that I didn't even realise were holding me back. Since then I have achieved so much including releasing my first children's book. I would recommend her to anyone. Gabrielle Brierley
Hi Jacqui Just thought I would drop you a message to let you know that I managed to fly on holiday with no anxiety on the outboard flight actually enjoying most of it and minimal anxiety on the return flight which was manageable so whatever you did must have worked, thank you!

I cannot recommend Jacqui enough and thank her for everything she has done for me. To have your life back and feel happy again is the best feeling in the world.

Dear Jacqui, I just want to express my sincere thanks on behalf of P and I for your kindness in the way you dealt with P and resolved her fear and also for resolving mine. I did not realise that my fear could be transferred to my daughter, I can't thank you enough, great therapy

Since starting my sessions with Jacqui I feel like a different person. Initially, I was seeking help for my chronic hives, which I had been suffering with for two and a half years. Jacqui is a great listener, kind and caring. She helped me get to the root of my problems and together we addressed many issues which were causing me stress and anxiety. I cannot recommend Jacqui enough and thank her from the bottom of my heart for everything she has done for me.
