Why See A Licensed Therapist

It can be tough to schedule a session with a stranger to discuss your mental health concerns. The idea of sitting in a room and answering the question “how does that make you feel” may make you queasy. As much as entertainment and films have projected mental health therapists in this light, there’s a lot of deep work that occurs while in sessions. Your licensed therapist will work with you to find a way to work with and through life events, stress, anxiety, depression, and more. If you’re struggling with life or mental health concerns, it’s time to see a therapist. Here are some reasons why you may want to consider seeing a licensed therapist:

You DONT Feel Heard or  Understood

You have a unique perspective on understanding life and your experiences matter.  You want other people to understand you and the story you have to tell.

Feeling disconnected can lead to feelings of frustration, anxiety, and depression and can interfere with work, school, and life. Does this sound like something you are experiencing?  If so, you may want to see a mental health therapist to address these emotions and work through the root cause.

You want to live your Best Life​

You work hard and try your best. When you look back at pictures, you realize that you are nearly the same place you were one, two, or even five years ago. This isn’t the plan that you had for your life. You are ready to make a change!

  • Find the career you want
  • Lose that weight and feel great again
