You may remember my conversation with therapist Andrea Parks about the drama triangle and how we can shift out of harmful roles in our relationships. But once we escape the drama, how do we build the deep, connected relationships we crave? In this episode, Andrea introduces the intimacy triangle and we dive into how authenticity, openness, and responsiveness create true closeness. Here's what we cover:


  • The role that vulnerability plays in intimate relationships
  • How to strengthen the three components necessary for intimacy in your relationships
  • Why it’s often difficult to develop the three components of intimacy in high-demand religions or family systems
  • Examples of how openness increases intimacy in all relationships
  • Why responsiveness is often transactional or conditional in an unhealthy system


I can’t wait for you to listen.


By training and profession Andrea is a therapist and facilitator. She is in private practice and the owner of Bloom Healing. She has a degree in Child Development and a Masters degree in Counseling psychology. She has training and experience in psychodrama, attachment, somatic bodywork, developmental trauma, grief and life transitions.
