Often times depression, stress, an daily struggles run us down and debilitate us from being the best version of ourselves. It leads us to doubt our strength and abilities. and we become self destructive and loose our sense of self. Therapists like myself help to re program, hit the reset button and build your foundation again. We often need someone to believe in us and motivate us to make change and become invigorated. New coping skills and habits along side of a healthy, private, honest listener can help us begin to heal and strive in our own lives. It is a risk to disclose and discuss deeply buried feelings and insecurities which is why a therapist is helpful to label our feelings and help us reframe our thoughts and begin to unburden ourselves so we can become healthy and balanced again.
