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

I understand starting something new can be daunting, but it is important to take that first step. Therapy is something that can help provide you with the tools to have your peace of mind.

Authenticity is very important on your mental wellness journey. Healing is a process that we must take time for. Mental health is a priority. I am a client-centered, collaborative therapist that will work with you on managing stress, anxiety, life transitions, depression and other issues you are facing.

The reason you come to therapy is up to you - I provide a safe space for you to reflect, heal, rage, and reclaim. Together we will come to understand what are the values you hold that make life worth living and make a plan of what to do when it doesn't feel possible to keep on going. If you only have 16 hours in an average day, we will use the 1 hour we meet per week (0.9% of your time) to build intentional relational and survival skills that can carry over into the rest of your life. Therapy should not be an echo chamber and a diagnosis should not be the answer to all questions. You are the expert in your experience. Therapy should be give and take, relational, and worth your time.

Therapy for queer, trans, gender-expansive, disabled, neurodivergent, grieving, and caregiving folks and their loved ones.

I would tell them that therapy does not mean something is “wrong” with you. It simply means you are giving yourself space to be heard, supported, and understood. You do not have to have everything figured out before starting, and you do not have to share everything all at once. Therapy can move at your pace, with compassion and without judgment. Even if life feels heavy right now, you do not have to walk through the rain alone.

Hey there, welcome! My name is Lydia Anthony, LPC (#85822). Through Rejoice in the Rain Counseling, I provide individual (1:1) online therapy to adults in Texas and Vermont. Maybe you feel... Powerless against the whirlpool of rapid changes. Drowned by the downpour of fear, worry, and anxiety. Like it's hard to see beyond the dark clouds of depression. Swept away by the waves of hurt, regret, and guilt. Or caught up in a cyclone of self-doubt and insecurity. Let me be your companion through the rain into a new chapter of your life! Becoming a counselor wasn’t just a career choice for me; it was a journey inspired by my own lived experiences, which formed the philosophy that drives my practice: a belief that things will get better, but even in the rain, you can find meaning, inspiration, and beauty. Whether you’re looking for extra support during a difficult time or simply seeking personal growth, know that you’re not alone. A space of care, calm, and compassion awaits you.

Sometimes it is easier to talk to a stranger that is objective. Therapy is about helping you and to so that, to need to feel comfortable and safe. It doesn't hurt to try, but it does hurt to regret not trying sooner.

I believe that the whole person needs to be treated, along with family and community. This ability to maneuver through one's society is often disturbed by stress- be it basically, mental, or from outside forces. I enjoy helping a peraon shake the overwhelm and to be the best version of them selves. I hope to be available go help each person through that journey that wants to fo through it.

It makes sense to feel hesitant. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, unfamiliar, and even intimidating. You do not have to have everything figured out before you start, and you do not have to share everything right away. Therapy is not about being judged or “fixed.” It is about having a space where you can show up as you are and move at your own pace. You are allowed to ask questions, set boundaries, and decide what feels right for you. I wish I could tell people to start small. You can begin with what feels easiest to talk about and build from there. Also, pay attention to how you feel with your therapist. Feeling safe and understood is more important than saying the “right” things.

You don’t have to have everything figured out, and you don’t have to “be broken” to come. Therapy isn’t about being told what to do... it’s a space to slow down, be heard, and explore and grow as a human. It’s normal to feel nervous or unsure at first. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but taking that first step can be the start of feeling more understood, less stuck, and more in charge of your own life.

I’m Megan — I work with women and mothers who are juggling a million things, feeling stuck, or just trying to survive life’s transitions — from reproductive and perinatal challenges to the reckoning of midlife. I blend EMDR, IFS-informed parts work, attachment-based therapy, and somatic techniques to help you untangle old patterns, calm your nervous system, and feel stronger.

It may seem scary at first but it's literally the best thing you will ever do for yourself. The relief that comes from doing the hard work of therapy is truly a sense of freedom that only comes... by doing the hard work. There is no such thing as doing therapy perfect. There are no "wrong" answers. There is no one way to do it. If you're struggling with just getting started, just start. That's the only way you'll ever know if it can work for you!

Aloha! I'm Judy, reformed good girl, lifelong rebel and mental health therapist. Therapy is more than just a job for me, it's something I'm truly passionate about. I truly believe that everyone should be able to feel at home in their own body, be able to walk into a room without scanning everyone's emotions like your a PI and have relationships that feel connected and real. Clients often say I'm warm, honest, direct and humorous (it's ok to laugh in therapy, just sayin'). I love life and I love supporting others in discovering their own version of happy. 🙌🏽

Just try it! Most people are hesitant because therapy can be scary. It is scary to share parts of yourself with another person. However, once you take the plunge, it will be the most rewarding experience.

It is completely normal to feel hesitant about therapy, especially if you have never tried it before or are unsure what to expect. I would want them to know that therapy is not about being judged or forced to share everything right away. It is a supportive space where you can move at your own pace, talk through what feels heavy, and better understand what you are experiencing. Reaching out for help is not a weakness, it is a meaningful step toward feeling more clear, supported, and in control of your life.
