How To Have Healthier Relationships with Jennifer Nurick

In this episode, you'll hear:

- How negative cycles show up in relationships and why we get stuck in them

Practical tools to break negative cycles, set boundaries, and communicate more effectively with your partner

How hidden attachment patterns, like anxious or avoidant styles, might be driving conflict in your relationship
Tips to stay grounded when emotional triggers act like time machines and pull on old wounds

Jennifer Nurick is a licensed clinical psychotherapist, trauma specialist, and the founder of Psychotherapy Central. With over 20 years of experience in counseling, she specializes in attachment theory, relationship healing, and trauma recovery. Jennifer is also a certified energetic healer and author of Heal Your Anxious Attachment, where she blends evidence-based psychological tools with compassion and real-world strategies to help individuals and couples transform painful relationship patterns. Through her clinical work, writing, and workshops, Jennifer empowers people to break free from negative cycles and build secure, authentic connections.

In this episode, Mathew, Dr. Dave Leicken, and Jennifer Nurick dive deep into the emotional dynamics that shape our relationships, especially when we feel stuck in patterns that seem impossible to break. Drawing from Jennifer’s book Heal Your Anxious Attachment, they explore what negative cycles are, how to recognize when you’re in one, and, most importantly, how to begin shifting out of them. The conversation unpacks the ways attachment styles, like anxious or avoidant, show up in adult relationships, how triggers can feel like emotional time travel, and what it takes to approach your partner from a grounded, regulated place. You’ll hear actionable tools to interrupt conflict spirals, including boundary-setting, effective communication strategies, and reflective practices for personal healing and growth. Whether you're navigating conflict or seeking deeper connection, this episode offers insight, empathy, and guidance for transforming the way you relate.

“We have to have awareness around the cycles. So, what are my repetitive thoughts, what are my repetitive experiences…What cycles run through my family?” - Jennifer Nurick

“First we have to discover, we have to know what cycles am I working with, what comes through that generational lineage…then there is healing.” - Jennifer Nurick

“It’s not just the emotions that they felt, but it’s the narrative that they are telling themselves. Each side has a different narrative and the narratives don't always match up.” - Dr. Dave Leicken
