Our automatic responses to our partners may be helping or hurting us (or both!) but our responses are there for a reason. Couples therapy works to understand these automatic responses and take better control of the process, freeing us from a stance of defensiveness.

We want connection- a space to be vulnerable and truly seen. But emotional intimacy is risky, and that scares us, especially with a difficult history! Instead of being vulnerable, we build up walls to protect us. Let's break down the walls and build a loving connection.

Burbank established their first newspaper in 1906, and the city was incorporated in 1911. At this time the city adopted their first seal which was a cantaloupe, the crop that saved the town when the land boom collapsed. The seal has since been revised to depict the media and aircraft industry that is so prevalent in the city. The city began to grow and by 1930, several large employers were headquartered in Burbank, such as First National Studios, Lockheed Company, Northrop Aircraft Corporation, and Andrew Jergens Company. Early manufacturing in Burbank included the Burbank Furniture Manufacturing Company, Moreland Motor Truck Company, employing around 500 people. When Walt Disney studio moved from Hollywood to Burbank in 1939, they had wanted to build a Mickey Mouse Park, but the city council refused to allow it to be built.
