Therapy is an investment into your own mental health. As we work together through present situations of parenthood or working with children, no doubt your own history will unfold. Navigating through the complexities together may offer the safe space needed to allow yourself permission to grieve, make different choices, set boundaries, and create new pathways in your own brain as you learn about yourself and gain tools to help in the moment with the children in your life. I’m honored to walk alongside you as one who has also navigated my own journey of healing.
How do I get the most out of a therapy session?
Be Open and Honest with your Therapist
A successful therapy experience hinges on vulnerability. Share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly, especially ones with your therapist, even when it feels uncomfortable.Actively Engage Between Sessions
Therapy doesn’t end when your session does. To get the most out of therapy, apply what you learn in your daily life. Consistent effort outside sessions reinforces new skills and helps you integrate positive changes into your routine.Communicate Your Needs and Preferences
Every client’s journey is unique, and therapy works best when it’s personalized. If something isn’t working—whether it’s the pace, approach, or focus—let your therapist know. Often, this is great practice for asking for what you need in relationships.Be Patient and Trust the Process
Healing and growth take time, and progress in therapy isn’t always linear. Some sessions may feel challenging or slow, but that’s part of the process. Trusting your therapist and staying committed can lead to breakthroughs when you least expect them. Celebrate small wins along the way, and remember that investing in mental health support is a marathon, not a sprint.
