FAQs

I’m not sure if i need therapy, will it still be helpful?

Absolutely! A common misconception is that therapy is only needed for debilitating mental health symptoms. Therapy is a great way to gain insight into yourself and your past, examine blindspots, maintain a healthy lifestyle, enhance relationships/connections, and work on self development and goals. Sometimes, it’s just nice to have a neutral person to talk through your thoughts with.
