People seek therapy for many reasons—coping with life changes like divorce, managing mental health conditions such as depression, or working toward personal goals.

 

Despite common misconceptions, therapy is not just for those in crisis; it's for everyday people facing everyday challenges.​ Some enter therapy voluntarily, while others are encouraged by loved ones or required by courts or guardians. Whatever the reason, starting therapy takes courage and commitment.

​

Together, the therapist and client set goals and decide whether therapy will be short- or long-term. Often, the process goes beyond the initial issue, exploring deeper aspects of the client’s life and experiences.
