You’re interested in therapy but have some hesitations. You question if you have a valid reason for starting therapy and wonder if there are people who need it more than you. What would you even say to a therapist when asked why you scheduled an appointment?

These days people meet with a therapist for a variety of reasons. Therapy does not require a mental health diagnosis nor an identified issue to get started. Therapy is for you if you want help with stress management, seek personal growth, need help with conflict resolution, or simply want to talk things through.

Why Mental Health is Important

Taking care of your mental health is important because it’s an investment in your emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing. Improved mental health has been shown to correlate with healthier relationships, improved physical health, and reduced stress. Anyone can benefit from working on their mental health through therapy.

What is your experience and what are your credentials?
