If you’re ready to say yes to being the best version of yourself, have fulfilling and healthy relationships, and have a better life, - then you are in the right place! Hey, we’re Tim and Ruth! We’re licensed marriage and family therapists and trauma experts with over 30 years of combined experience. We’ve seen time and time again how people have tried to will themselves to be happy, muscle through it, and have ended up even worse off than when they began. We’ve noticed that people have experienced deep pain, whether it’s others who have hurt them or situations and the world just beating them down, and often they have turned that into an internal dialogue where they are mean...like really cruel in how they talk to themselves. They have anxiety, feel depressed and overwhelmed, all the while their self talk is telling them ”I’m not good enough, I’m a failure, I’m worthless, I’m not loveable, I cannot trust anyone, I am powerless, I’m not in control.” How emotionally exhausting! We’ve realized that people want to get out of that place, they just don’t know how. They feel lost, alone, and without hope. Mental health & recurring toxic relationships can feel like an uphill battle, but you are not alone in this, that’s where we come in! We offer specific steps, practical tools, strategies, and insights that will help you to overcome these ongoing battles and help you win the war! There is hope, and there certainly is healing! We can’t wait to share it with you! If you are ready to finally find ways to overcome your anxiety, stop your negative self talk, stop feeling like a burden, break free from co-dependency and toxic relationships, and stop letting your past run the show... and if you’re looking for changes that can transform your life, like improved mood, increased confidence, healthier relationships, and healing from the past that has kept you stuck for too long - this podcast is for you! Bring your drama and your trauma and lets get healing! We’d love to connect with you over in our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mrandmrstherapypodcast/

Today we continue with part 2 of "What is Love Anyway? Everyone is searching for it or trying to increase it. But how do you actually define love? We define it as loving actions we take toward our spouse no matter how we feel. We don't define it as an emotion. Come along with us and learn more about what LOVE IS!
"Love is PATIENT and KIND;
Love DOES NOT ENVY or BOAST
It is NOT ARROGANT or RUDE.
It DOES NOT INSIST ON ITS OWN WAY
It is NOT IRRITABLE or RESENTFUL
It DOES NOT REJOICE at WRONGDOING,
but REJOICES with THE TRUTH.
LOVE BEARS ALL THINGS,
BELIEVES ALL THINGS,
HOPES ALL THINGS,
ENDURES ALL THINGS.
LOVE NEVER ENDS."

We have gotten so many questions about if EMDR is okay for Christians. We've seen the hesitation and worry from those who know they need help but don't know what to do and are hesitant or worried about EMDR. In today's episode we address this concern and help you understand why, not only is it okay, but it may help you discover your true identity in Christ and heal from past hurts or trauma that are stopping you from truly believing and knowing your identity in Christ. We want you to experience fullness, joy and freedom, and we want you to represent Him well.
