Psychologist Sara Kuburic who is popularly known as Millenial Therapist talks about tips to build deeper connections in her recent Instagram post.

Practice vulnerability: Share your thoughts, feelings, dreams or fears. Show them who you are, rather than what you think they want you to be.

Try something new together: Get comfortable exploring the world together, playing together, and growing together.

Be curious: Stop assuming you know everything there is to know about a person. Keep being curious and allow them to show you who they are and who they are becoming (don't let your projections and expectations get in the way).

Face conflict (stop avoiding it): Face conflict with empathy and openness. Focus on understanding and connecting with the other person (rather than on being "right").

Give non-physical compliments: Let the other person know what qualities you admire and love about them. It will make them feel seen and appreciated.

Apologize when wrong: Take accountability for your words and actions. Validate the hurt you have been caused.
