What is therapy?
Therapy, also known as counseling or psychotherapy, is a form of treatment that involves talking with a trained mental health professional to address emotional, psychological, or behavioral concerns. The goal of therapy is to help you improve your mental health and well-being, enhance your relationships, and develop coping skills to manage life's challenges.
Therapy can take many forms and can be tailored to the specific needs of the individual. Some common types of therapy include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy. Each type of therapy has its own approach and techniques, but all share the goal of promoting mental health and personal growth.
During therapy sessions, you will work with your therapist to explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be contributing to your difficulties or distress. Rest assured that your therapist will provide you with support, guidance, and feedback, while you gain insight into your feelings and learn new skills and coping strategies.
Therapy is typically conducted in a safe and confidential environment, and sessions can occur in person or online. The frequency and duration of therapy can vary depending on the individual's needs and goals. We recommend that you start with weekly sessions.
Sounds great, but why should I start therapy?
Life is more than challenging right now. Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed and down. You are not sure how to feel better and know that you are living a fulfilled life. You are here because you are looking for a safe space where you can be yourself, without judgment. We know it is hard to ask for help, so you are looking for the right fit to tackle all of life's difficulties.
Therapy can be a transformative tool to help you feel better and tackle the world around you. It is a unique space where the focus is entirely on you and your needs, concerns, and goals.
Here's what you can expect:
1
Therapy is a collaborative process. While we have the tools and professional knowledge to help you heal, you are the expert on YOU. Together, we can set treatment goals for your needs and desires and help you live the life of your dreams.
2
Confidentiality is of the utmost importance and the therapeutic relationship is built on trust. The therapy room is a safe space that allows you to share your thoughts and feelings in a safe, non-judgmental environment.
3
Therapy can help you increase self-awareness and gain a deeper understanding of your emotions, behaviors, and thought patterns. The insights and skills you gain in therapy can provide relief long after treatment is complete. We want you to take the tools you have learned to navigate future challenges and continue to grow and develop as a person.
