Ever wonder what therapy is for? If you’ve never been, you might be asking yourself a few things:
- Are my problems “big enough” to go to therapy?
- Am I crazy if I go to therapy?
- Can I afford therapy?
- What even is therapy?
Unfortunately, mental health care is still stigmatized in the U.S., despite being a crucial part of one’s overall well-being.
But here’s the thing: ANYONE can and does benefit from therapy, no matter how “big” or “small” your problems or emotions feel. It’s a crucial form of self-care that can change your life for the better.
Even if you just want to learn more about yourself, discover connections within your patterns of behavior, or talk to someone neutral about things, therapy is for you.
