Importance of Therapy

The decision to seek help can be a big one. For most people it can be difficult and scary. Many of us have been raised to think that we should be able to handle everything on our own, and that seeking an outside opinion is a sign of physical or moral weakness. Whether your relationship is in trouble, you have addiction concerns, or you just want to feel better, therapy can help.

As humans, we are resilient, but it's hard to filter out the "noise" from the environment and the many demands that life puts us through. Many frustrating attempts to solve a problem may not have worked leading to a sense of helplessness as to why things go so badly. Most of us want relief from pain, physical or emotional.

Generally, therapy is sought after an upsetting event or crisis that challenges our existing coping skills or brings up overwhelming feelings and distress. Old pain and trauma may resurface.

Therapy can help us feel better about ourselves and helps us to resolve our problems. It can bring relief from addictive behaviors, increase self-esteem, and relieve wounds of old hurts and trauma. Our therapist offer their expertise that is specifically responsive to your needs.
