For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?

Yes, therapy can, at times, be uncomfortable. I mean, you are pouring your heart out to a stranger, right? Telling him your deepest, darkest secrets. You wonder if he will understand, if he will judge you, or even use those things against you in some way. Also, sometimes there are difficult feelings to get through. Memories that we just wish would go away. Thoughts that interrupt even the most pleasant times. Never fear! Those 'bad' thoughts are feelings are but temporary, and the telling of your story usually leads to a sense of relief. Heck, just knowing that someone cared enough to listen can make all the difference in the world. After awhile, you will find yourself putting your past in the past, able to live fully in the present.

Being uncomfortably is not always a bad thing. We are taught to create a life that is comfortable, but uncomfortable feelings are also a sign of growth. It’s rare we grow without being uncomfortable.  The feeling that follows uncomfortable is often life changing.

Admitting you’re in a season where you need help is the hardest step. We are all broken and we all need help at one point. In therapy you get a safe space to work on yourself and in turn improve your relationships with others and most importantly yourself

Starting therapy takes courage, and finding the right therapist makes all the difference. I recommend setting up phone consultations to "interview" the different therapists. It can take away any concerns about therapy when you understand more about the process, the different approaches used, and find someone you feel comfortable talking to.

As a licensed psychotherapist and life coach, I help ambitious, anxious women learn how to trust and put themselves first, so they can stop burning themselves out trying to meet other people’s expectations. My clients have done all the things to create a life they would be proud of, but they’re not as happy as they thought they would be. I help them to get their confidence back and experience more joy - and I’d love to help you do the same.

The benefits of therapy are far-reaching. You owe it to yourself to try it out.

Many people feel apprehensive about seeking therapy, and it's completely normal to have doubts or reservations. Mental health struggles are more common than you might think, and there are countless others who have been in your shoes and found therapy to be immensely beneficial. Therapists are trained to be empathetic and understanding, and their primary goal is to support you in your journey toward healing and personal growth. Therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, and it's perfectly okay to approach it at your own pace. You have the autonomy to decide what feels comfortable for you, whether that means starting with a few sessions to test the waters or taking breaks when needed. Working with a therapist can provide you with practical strategies, coping skills, and insights that you can apply to navigate life's challenges more effectively. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal development, therapy can equip you with the tools you need to thrive.
