Why should you go to therapy?

A mental health therapist can help you work through difficult feelings or stressors that may affect your day-to-day life. The approach is very collaborative.

Read below to find 5 reasons for going to psychotherapy:

1. You’ve been diagnosed with a mental health condition
If you’re diagnosed with a mental health condition, your mental health specialist may recommend therapy in conjunction with medication for your treatment plan.
Medication can lessen symptoms you may be experiencing, while therapy helps work through unhelpful or unwanted thoughts that may impact you.
A diagnosis isn’t required to begin therapy but A therapist can help you identify unhealthy thoughts and offer ways to navigate them so that they don’t get in your way.

2. You experienced a significant life event
Sometimes life throws major life events our way that may impact our mental wellness/health for example:
• death of a loved one
• loss of a job
• going through a divorce
• experiencing a traumatic life event
A seasoned psychotherapist has many stories experiences and exercises to share that can help you out from a rough patch. Grief and loss are powerful feelings that can disable us if we don’t have proper support.

3. You just feel like you need a little help
Life can be challenging at times, but you don’t have to go on this journey alone. Therapy can help you discover new ways to approach challenging situations that will support your well-being.
But, more than that, you can go to therapy to help understand yourself better or improve your ability to thrive.

4. You can’t concentrate
If you find it difficult to concentrate on everyday activities or work assignments, you may benefit from a therapist.
A mental health professional can assess this in therapy and offer a treatment plan that fits your needs. They may ask you various questions that can help them rule out the possibility of undiagnosed mental health conditions such as ADHD or depression. A mental health professional to help you adopt healthy habits to improve your focus.

5. Your actions are affecting those around you
Sometimes our actions or lifestyle choices may seem fine to us, but then we notice that they negatively impact the other people in our lives. Therapy can help you develop a healthy relationship with yourself and your loved ones.
If you notice that loved ones are affected, consider listening to how they may feel during this time and honestly discuss how this may be impacting you.

If you feel specific issues in your life aren’t getting better despite your best efforts, that may be a sign that you could use help from therapy. A therapist can help analyze the problem and suggest a new approach you may haven’t thought of before, give you take home exercises to work on and offer sound advice based on evidence based research.
