In this episode of Everyday Therapy, Brett Cushing, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and Dr. Karin Ryan, Licensed Psychologist, explore relationship anxiety—what it is, how it shows up, and when it becomes more concerning.

With compassion and clarity, this conversation reframes anxiety not as a sign that something is “wrong,” but as an invitation to deepen self-awareness, strengthen emotional boundaries, and build healthier attachment.

Tune in to Discover:

• What relationship anxiety is and why it’s so common
• Signs of relationship anxiety, including reassurance-seeking and overanalyzing
• How fear of abandonment and conflict fuels anxiety in relationships
• The push–pull cycle of closeness and distancing
• Over-functioning, people-pleasing, and emotional boundary challenges
• The difference between relationship anxiety and relationship OCD
