HELP AND SUPPORT

You Can Trust Us

Illustration

Sometimes people fall into situations from which there seems to be no way out. Life problems and stress strike our mental health. The most common causes of depression are a lack of help and support.

Depression is not just a bad mood. It is a disease that requires serious correction and in-depth work. The modern rhythm of life and regular stresses often provoke the development of depression, anxiety, and other disorders. Properly selected therapy will allow you to get rid of psychological problems, cope with difficulties, and live a full life.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Illustration

Mental health therapy always raises many questions from clients. We tried to answer the most frequent of them. If you still have questions, contact us.

What’s the difference between talking to you or my best friend or family?

The difference is between someone who can do something and someone who has the training and experience to do that same thing professionally. A mental health professional can help you approach your situation in a new way– teach you new skills, gain different perspectives, listen to you without judgment or expectations, and help you listen to yourself.

I’ve never talked to anyone. I’m used to handling things on my own. Aren’t people who go to therapy weak?

Not at all. People who ask for help know when they need it and have the courage to reach out. Everyone needs help now and then. In our work together, I’ll help you explore and identify your strengths and how to implement them to reduce the influence of the problems you are facing.

Why shouldn’t I just take medication?

Medication can be effective, but it alone cannot solve all issues. Sometimes medication is needed in conjunction with counseling. Our work together is designed to explore and unpack the problems you are experiencing and expand on the strengths that can help you accomplish your personal goals.

How does it work? What do I have to do in sessions?

Because each person has different issues and goals for counseling, it will be different depending on the individual. I tailor my therapeutic approach to your specific needs.

How long will it take?

Unfortunately, this is not possible to say on a general FAQs page.
Everyone’s circumstances are unique to them and the length of time counseling can take to allow you to accomplish your goals depends on your desire for personal development, your commitment, and the factors that are driving you to seek counseling in the first place.

I want to get the most out of therapy. What can I do to help?

I am so glad you are dedicated to getting the most out of your sessions. Your active participation and dedication will be crucial to your success.
