Past Reality Integration

Relationship problems

In most relationships, patterns develop over time that make it difficult to feel the love you initially shared.

The emergence of relationship problems

Sometimes there are clear events in your life that trigger relationship problems, such as the loss of a loved one, an unfulfilled desire to have children, dismissal, or illness. It is also possible that there is a lot of arguing and conflict between you.

But often signals are more subtle: do you notice at some point that you actually share little with each other, that physical intimacy has greatly decreased, or that you live together under one roof without real contact.

Discovering love

It is possible to rediscover the love with which your relationship began. In practice, it turns out time and again that this love has usually not disappeared at all.

Together, you have only become entangled in patterns that cover up your feelings for each other. Patterns from old survival mechanisms that you developed as a child.

Unconsciously, you keep projecting your own past onto your partner and reacting from that survival mode. And usually your projections and patterns interlock precisely, which strengthens them.

How to find each other (again) and not get lost (anymore)

How PRI can help with relationship problems

With the help of PRI, you learn to recognize in which concrete, daily situations you unconsciously and unintentionally touch each other's pain points, causing you to fall into the same destructive behavior patterns and emotions.

Together with your therapist, you will discover the old, repressed painful feelings that lie beneath. This will gradually detach your past from the present and from your partner. Moreover, you will gain control over it yourself, because your therapist will teach you how to apply the PRI instruments yourself, now and in the future.

This way, you can gradually break through your vicious circle of conflicts or of growing apart. You will come back into contact with the love for each other and can deepen it further and further.

In addition to regular relationship therapy by one of our relationship therapists, Ingeborg Bosch offers couples 5-day PRI Relationship Intensives. Click here for more information.
