If you are wondering what happens in therapy and want to know what to expect…
Therapy can be so many things, but the simplest and most comprehensive explanation is: therapy is meeting yourself.
The purpose of therapy can change and move with you, as your goals and needs change. In today’s world, therapy can provide an intentional pause – a time to self-reflect, check in, process, problem-solve, create more balance in life, find ways to be a little bit kinder to yourself, be a little more present in your experiences. Therapy meets you where you are and asks “what do you need right now?”
Therapy is a process you commit to, and therefore it becomes what you make it. It is so often stigmatized, but it is an act of self-love – it is you showing up for you.
The beating heart of therapy is the therapeutic relationship, the human connection – and it is one of the greatest honors to walk with someone on their journey.
