My partner (52 M) needs therapy/ support. Mostly due to childhood / family trauma, and anger/triggers with resentment and just unhappiness with life at the moment. He seems to be in fight or flight mode constantly and is very unhappy with his current career (feels like he’s a failure/now too old to move up), which is causing additional stress. He’s depressed and things have really escalated this past year.
He is reluctant to speak to someone as he thinks it won’t change anything. However we have come to a point that he might need to, and so are beginning to try and find the right person.
Any suggestions of a local therapist that might be suited for this? Or a style of therapy he should seek. Ideally it’s someone who empathizes, but asks the hard questions and really helps him with tools to try and resolve these issues.
