This question might be one that you’ve been asking yourself many times. There’s been a certain stigma linked with mental healthcare in our society for so many centuries that it has created a stereotypical belief that one only seeks a mental health professional when there is a serious issue. Therapy is a process to understanding yourself and others around your so that you can find ways to resolve issues that have felt “stuck”. Seeking help is not a weakness but rather a step of courage because you hope for a day where you have found healing and strength to face your circumstances.
