Folks often wonder if things are “bad” enough to start therapy. However, the stressors in your life don’t have to feel unbearable before therapy can become a helpful resource.

Therapy can help you understand patterns in your thoughts and behaviors that are limiting you in achieving your goals or diminishing your happiness. Many people enter therapy because they want to understand themselves more fully, improve their relationships, and change patterns that have left them feeling stuck. You may have discovered that previous ways of coping are no longer serving you and are looking for new ways to manage the stressors of your life. That's where therapy comes in.
