Over the years as a therapist, I’ve sat with countless clients navigating the pain of rupture in relationships, wanting to make amends, but feeling completely stuck. Not because they didn’t care, but because their bodies and emotions were in such a state of reactivity, they couldn’t find a way to even begin the conversation. So they avoided it.

But avoidance comes with a cost.

When we sidestep difficult conversations, we push each other further away. We end up losing relationships we still long for, simply because we didn’t know how to face the discomfort.

I created this workbook as a tool, for my clients, and for anyone, who needs help bridging that gap. Inside, you’ll find practical strategies, journal prompts, and techniques designed to help you self-soothe, regulate your nervous system, and slowly build the capacity to face these conversations with more clarity and care.

This isn’t just a workbook to read, it’s one to use. To return to. To practice with. I’ve seen it help people take small but powerful steps toward reconnection, even when it felt impossible.

If you’ve been holding back from the words you most need to say, or hear, I hope this workbook helps you begin.
