Therapy
What is Therapy?
Therapy is the process of meeting with a therapist to work towards resolving problematic behaviours, beliefs, feelings, relationship issues, and/or somatic responses (sensations in the body).
Pros and Cons of Therapy:
Psychotherapy can have lots of benefits, but you may also experience uncomfortable feelings like sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness, and/or helplessness. The goal of therapy is not necessarily to avoid these, and therapy can often help you to work through these feelings. Evidence-based therapy has also been shown to have many benefits (e.g., decreased symptoms, improved functioning, improved relationships, increased coping skills and resilience, reductions in psychological distress, etc.).
Creating Change:
Simply coming in to talk with a therapist is not sufficient to produce change. Improvement requires that you make therapy a priority by attending sessions and by carrying out practices and activities between sessions. The change also requires a willingness to evaluate current thoughts and behaviours and try new things. It can be hard work. If you are not ready to commit to this process, you are strongly encouraged to talk to your clinician about your reservations.
