When we’re in love, we tend to feel attached to our partner. Where does this cross the line into being possessive?

In this episode of Reloscope: The Relationships Science Insights Podcast, host Aditi Kutty is joined by Deepika Mulchandani, a trauma-informed sexual and relationship health therapist, who is focused on supporting people to recognize the impact of trauma in our lives (relational, physical, and sexual) so we can recover and rebuild healthier & more loving relationships and enjoy a better sexual life.

Deepika is also the founder of The Open Connections, A Somatic Recovery & Relationship Wellness Centre based in Singapore & Indonesia & The Whole Woman Project, an experiential space for women to reclaim feeling safe and empowered as a sexual person through Embodied Belly Dancing, as well as an Advisor to heyy —a mental health app promoting recovery backed by AI technology and led by Human Connection. Deepika is also a Clinical Member of the Singapore Association for Counselling (SAC) and a professional member of the Australian Association of Family Therapy (AAFT).

Aditi and Deepika discuss reasons why people can get possessive in a relationship, how people should deal with possessiveness in their relationships, and most importantly, how we can recognize possessive behavior in ourselves and others. Deepika also shares her work experience related to romantic relationships.
