On the Fence About Going to Therapy?

You're not alone! Many people wonder who goes to therapy. The answer is many types of people! Years ago, therapy was stigmatized, seen as something only weak or very sick people sought. Thins have changed. Now people from many backgrounds and with diverse needs seek therapy. Some common reasons for therapy include personal growth, temporary or long-term depression, anxiety, stress, substance abuse, relationship issues, improving communication skills, and understanding how the past affects the present. No matter why you?re considering therapy, your reason is a good one. If you have doubts or questions, please contact me.

The Duration and Frequency of Therapy

The length of therapy varies. Ultimately it?s up to you, since you know better than I what your goals are. If you want short-term therapy, I work very hard to offer tailored sessions that quickly address your needs. If you have broader or less specific goals, I can work within that framework. The length of therapy depends on the issues you wish to address, the nature of the problem, and the work you do between sessions. But the process is collaborative, and I will always check in with you about how it?s going and how you?re progressing.
