Therapy Tip of the Day 🪑🤓🌱
One of the most common questions I get is: “How long will I need therapy?”
And the honest answer is… it depends.
Healing is not a one size fits all process. It is deeply personal, and it unfolds based on where you are in your journey. In therapy, we often look at this through the lens of the Stages of Change:
• Precontemplation: not yet seeing the need for change
• Contemplation: beginning to recognize something needs to shift
• Preparation: getting ready to take action
• Action: actively doing the work
• Maintenance: sustaining growth and preventing relapse
Each stage requires a different level of support, insight, and readiness. Some clients move through these stages quickly, while others take time, and both are valid.
The length of therapy is not determined by a timeline, it is shaped by your willingness, your pace, your consistency, and your courage to do the work.
As your therapist, I can guide, support, challenge, and walk alongside you. But your transformation does not belong to me. It belongs to you.
Your healing is yours to own.
Your growth is yours to steward.
Your breakthrough is yours to step into.
And when you honor your process, instead of rushing it, you begin to experience change that is not temporary, but truly transformational.
Trust the process. Trust your pace.
