Do I Need Therapy?
Do I Need Therapy?

Participating in psychotherapy can result in a number of benefits for a client, including improving interpersonal relationships and the resolution of specific concerns and/or problems that led a client to seek treatment.

Working toward these benefits, however, requires effort from the client. Psychotherapy requires a client’s very active involvement, honesty, and openness in order to achieve the necessary cognitive/behavioral goals. I will solicit client feedback during treatment to monitor progress; client honesty and openness can facilitate this process.

The therapeutic process may include discussions of your personal challenges and difficulties which can elicit uncomfortable feelings such as sadness, guilt, anger and frustration. However, therapy has been shown to have many benefits. It can often lead to better interpersonal relationships, improved work/academic performance, solutions to specific problems, and an increased capacity to manage intense feelings.

Therapy requires an active involvement in order to work towards growth. I am committed to this process, will work hard for you, and will ask you to do the same.
