 Whenever we have a frightening or stressful experience, it can affect us. Simply thinking about a strong memory can start an uncomfortable train of thought that has nothing to do with the present moment. Therapy, while at times painful, is also a very positive, empowering and life changing opportunity that anyone can benefit from. In fact, it can be so helpful to be a positive and calming force for yourself in the world! While therapy is meant to help you work through your difficulties and provide you with new skills and abilities to cope with life’s challenges, there are many benefits besides these. Therapy, or psychotherapy, as it is sometimes called, is a fantastic way to work on learning more about yourself and others. Therapy can be very useful in learning how to cope with life’s difficulties, because it teaches you to see the thoughts and feelings that are already there below the surface. It can be intimidating at first to think of therapy as an option, but you can benefit from it too.
