How to know if therapy is right for me…
Let’s be real—deciding to start therapy can feel like a big step. Maybe you’ve been putting it off, wondering if your struggles are “big enough” to justify reaching out for help. Here’s the truth: therapy isn’t just for crises. It’s for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward.
If you’ve been feeling like:
Your mind is a constant loop of overthinking, self-doubt, or negative thoughts.
Anxiety, stress, or sadness are draining your energy and making everyday tasks feel exhausting.
You’re struggling to maintain healthy relationships, feeling unseen, unheard, or taken advantage of.
Setting boundaries feels impossible, and you often say “yes” when you really mean “no.”
You’ve been carrying past trauma or unresolved emotions that still show up in unexpected ways.
Life transitions—whether a breakup, career shift, or personal loss—are leaving you feeling lost or ungrounded.
Therapy is a space to unpack what’s weighing you down, gain deeper insight, and develop tools that actually help. You don’t have to go through it alone, and you don’t need to wait until you’re at your breaking point to get support.
When Therapy Might Not Be the Right Fit
While therapy can be transformative, it isn’t always the right solution for everyone. Therapy might not be the best fit if:
You’re looking for a quick fix—healing and growth take time, and therapy is a process.
You’re unwilling to engage in self-reflection or take accountability for change.
You expect your therapist to “fix” everything for you rather than guide you through the work.
You’re not ready to be honest with yourself about your struggles or emotions.
You have needs that require immediate crisis intervention—therapy is not a replacement for emergency mental health care.
