Short answer Yes!

It is a misconception to think you must wait until you have “hit rock bottom” or are struggling to start therapy.  We all have family dynamics to explore, struggles in relationships, struggles with feeling happy, grateful, or excited.  We also sometimes have the urge to grow or outgrow things that no longer serve us.   Therapy provides a comfortable space to explore all these feelings with someone who is unbiased.  The therapist is not part of our inner circle and does not have the emotional attachment, or history that our family and friends have with us.

Do your research ahead of time, look at specific specialties that the therapist has, do a complimentary consultation. Likely within 1-2 sessions you will be able to recognize if it is a good fit.  Rest assured that if you find it is not a good fit, there are multiple therapists to choose from.  Reach out to Becky if you are finding you need another option for a therapist.

Therapy is a process and sometimes difficult to describe.  It is your time and space for processing thoughts, feelings in your body, past struggles, current successes no matter how small.  Therapy can sometimes bring up difficult emotions and feelings. Overall, it should feel like a comfortable space to open up and get your thoughts and feelings out, while not feeling judged.  You can stop and start therapy at any time, it is beneficial to track your progress session to session.   Some of the benefits could include- creating positive habits for yourself, learning self-compassion, learning to set boundaries.  Sessions are typically 50 minutes.

YES! Absolutely! As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have witnessed hundreds of clients who were struggling with depression, anxiety, and many other negative emotions that were severely impacting their day to day success and well being. For many of them, coming to counseling was almost too little too late.

I believe that through consistent self care we can PREVENT things like depression, anxiety, and other negative emotions. Through taking care of yourself first and foremost, you can be the best YOU, best wife/husband/partner, best mother/father, best in your career, your best EVERYTHING!
