Are you feeling stuck, disconnected or overwhelmed? It might be time to consider reaching out for support.
Therapy isn’t just for people in crisis or who are experiencing a severe mental health concern, it’s for anyone who has realized that the current ‘tools in their toolbox’ for dealing with life stressors are just not working, and they’re feeling ready and motivated to try something different.
Here are five signs to consider:
- Feeling overwhelmed by distressing emotions: Therapy can be a place where you discuss your feelings, receive validation and support, as well as develop new strategies to cope.
- Dealing with stressful life events: When difficult life experiences occur, they can leave you feeling unsettled and stuck. Therapy can provide a space to process your experiences and help you problem-solve the best ways to navigate stressful life events.
- Struggling in your relationships: If you’re experiencing tension/conflict in your relationship and/or feeling emotionally and physically disconnected, it might be time to reach out for support. Therapy can provide a space to reflect on your relationship, develop the skills and strategies to strengthen your communication, and rebuild trust and connection.
- Replaying past trauma: Whether it’s the experience of a single event or many events, the experience of trauma can feel devastating. Therapy can offer you a supportive space to heal from upsetting thoughts you are having because of the trauma and help you reclaim your life.
- Feeling curious about therapy: Therapy isn’t just reserved for individuals in crisis or with a severe mental concern. It’s also beneficial for individuals wanting to learn more about themselves and build on their current strengths. Therapy could afford you an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
Whether it’s about navigating relationships, regulating your emotions, processing trauma or simply checking in with yourself, therapy is one of the most effective ways to care for your emotional health.
