How can therapy help me?
Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive person makes you feel better. It can be very healing, in and of itself, to voice your worries or talk about something that’s weighing on your mind. And it feels good to be listened to—to know that someone else cares about you and wants to help.
There are a number of benefits that you will receive by engaging in therapy. Therapists can provide support, problem-solving skills, and enhanced coping strategies for issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, unresolved childhood issues, grief, stress management, body image issues, parenting struggles, career stagnation and creative blocks. Many people also find that therapists provide a fresh perspective on a difficult problem or point you in the direction of a solution that you had not discovered independently. The benefits you obtain from therapy depend on how well you use the process and put into practice what you learn. Therapy can help you:
