"The Wound is Where The Light Enters You" Rumi
Do I need therapy?
Ever felt like you're the only one going through tough times? Or maybe you've thought, "Therapy isn't for someone like me, it's for those with really serious issues." Do you sometimes minimise your struggles, thinking, "Aren't there people out there with bigger problems than mine? Life's tough, isn't it just normal to feel this way?"
Hey, we all have those moments where we're unsure if our feelings 'qualify' or if we 'deserve' support. But here's the thing: Your feelings and experiences are valid, no matter how big or small they seem.
You don’t have to go through this alone. Having an extra pair of ears, especially ones that are trained to listen and help, can make all the difference. While friends and family are wonderful, there's a unique value in chatting with someone like me. With my experience and skills, we can delve deeper, uncover insights, and navigate through your feelings in ways that might surprise you. Remember, it's okay to lean on others, and I'm here to walk beside you. 💛
