I decided to write this blog after a lengthy discussion with my friend Alisa. Alisa has been single for about four months now and had her latest break up when she learned her then boyfriend was married. This, however, was not the first time she found herself in this predicament. Alisa always seems to find the guys that she could never settle down with because they are otherwise involved….be it married…..engaged…or heavily involved with their own career, hobbies, or addictions. Knowing that i practice in this field, Alisa has asked me many many times if i thought she should go into therapy. My answer YES!!!!!!! Many people believe that therapy is only for “Crazy” people or those that can’t or don’t want to help themselves. The truth is therapy is for anyone that’s dealing with a challenge in life and wants help working through it. Anyone that wants to grow in their life and anyone that wants to work through ANYTHING. Also if you are asking yourself or others if you should go to therapy- the answer is YES. How could i possibly know this if i dont know you personally or your individual circumstance???? I know this because everyone can benefit from therapy to some degree. And if you are curious as to whether you would benefit from it- then chances are that you would.
To go to therapy or not to go to therapy…….
