Finding Time
About therapy
Why seek therapy?
Therapy is a space for exploration, reflection, and healing. Life’s challenges—whether they stem from past experiences, current struggles, or a sense of being stuck—can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. Talking to a therapist offers an opportunity to make sense of your thoughts and emotions, gain clarity, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself in a safe, non-judgemental environment.
Some people come to therapy with a clear issue they want to work through, while others seek support without knowing exactly what’s wrong—only that something doesn’t feel right. Whatever your reason, therapy is a place where your experiences are heard, validated, and explored at your own pace.
