Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?
Everyone goes through hardships. Everyone struggles. Learning coping skills and building my self efficacy changed my life. These things drove me to become and therapist and help others transform their lives the way mine was transformed. As I learn and grow my desire to help people live their true lives grows stronger.
