Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need therapy?
While you may have been able to cope with the challenges you’ve encountered, it’s always a good idea to seek extra support when you need it. Therapy will give you long – term benefits and the tools you need to overcome whatever difficulties you face.
How can therapy help me?
There are benefits in participating in therapy. Therapists can provide support and help you find relief for issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, stress, and relationship problems. Counseling is extremely valuable in managing personal growth, relationships, and the many challenges faced in daily life. Using theories and techniques, therapists can provide different perspectives on complicated problems and support you in resolving concerns, the best you can.
What happens during therapy?
Therapy may be different depending on the goals for therapy and the needs of the person. Typically speaking, we will discuss the things that are currently happening in your life, things that happened in the past that are relevant to your issue. Ultimately, you’re encouraged to bring what you’ve discovered or learnt during therapy back into your daily life.
Medication vs. Therapy
Medication cannot solve your mental and emotional problems alone. Therapy is needed in order to address the source of your distress and behavior patterns. Check with your medical doctor and see what’s the best treatment for you.
Will our conversations remain confidential?
Confidentiality is a key component of therapy. What you discuss in a session will not be shared with anyone else. By law, your therapist can’t release this information without your written consent, except in the following situations:
- There is past or present abuse or neglect of children, adults or elders.
- The client is in danger of harming themselves or has threatened to harm another person.
