Do I Need Therapy?

Life is full of ups and downs, problems and challenges. It’s common to wonder if you actually need therapy. Admitting that you need help and reaching out can help you get back on track. Going to therapy isn’t a sign of weakness or something to be ashamed of. It’s also important to understand that you don’t need to have a diagnosed mental health condition in order to benefit from therapy. It might be that there’s something troubling you at the moment, or you need some help and guidance with certain areas of your life such as your self-esteem, relationships or issues from your past that have re-surfaced.

The Link Between Thoughts, Emotions, and Behaviour

Everything begins with a thought and where you end up in life, begins and ends in your thought. The way you think will make your life a living hell or a living heaven. Everything starts with a thought. When we engage with specific thoughts, we begin to feel the emotions that these thoughts triggered, and we enter a new emotional state, which influences how we act. For example, if you regularly engage with the thought that you’re a failure and feed more attention to it, you’ll start to feel down, worthless, discouraged and perhaps even depressed.

12 Rewarding Benefits of Therapy

If you’re considering therapy, you may be thinking about the possible drawbacks. Cost might be a concern for you. You might also be aware that therapy is often difficult. Trauma or other painful events from the past can be frightening to remember and discuss with someone. Working through challenges isn’t easy, and therapy isn’t always a quick fix. Make sure that when you’re ready to see a therapist that you can be honest with yourself and with your them.

Therapy Can Increase Your Income

One of the first complaints people have about counselling and psychotherapy is that ‘a therapist costs too much’. While a good therapist can indeed charge a healthy hourly rate, there is another side to money and therapy to consider. Can therapy help you get your life together to the point you are actually earning more money than before? We’d say a solid yes, and here’s our reasons why.

Debunking 10 Myths About Therapy

Seeking help for your mental health can be quite nerve-racking and not knowing what to expect can cause worry. However, it is important to remind yourself that you have already taken the hardest step, which is realising the need to seek support for yourself and taking action on it. There are many persistent myths about therapy that can influence a person's decision to avoid seeking help.

What to Expect in Your First Therapy Session

For the many people who have yet to seek the mental health care they need, lingering questions about what to expect in therapy can create added anxiety. Contrary to what you may see in movies or TV shows, therapy is not always a dramatic process where you lie on a couch and spill your deepest secrets. The therapy process is more nuanced and complex than you might expect.

Benefits of Couples Counselling

While individual therapy can and does help people deal with relationship issues on their own, sometimes it’s helpful for a couple to attend therapy together to sort through difficulties. Marriage and couples counselling is a type of counselling that offers a safe environment for couples to explore difficulties, overcome obstacles, and work toward common goals.

What To Expect In Couples Therapy

“What to expect in couples therapy?” Is an important question you may be asking yourselves if you have never done it before. Therapy in general may seem overwhelming, as you know it can drudge up feelings that you have been trying to keep dormant for a long time. Add your partner in the mix and it can feel even more daunting as you both feel uncomfortable feelings. All reasons for feeling nervous about reaching out and exploring couples therapy are completely valid and incredibly common.
