Myth #3: Therapy takes years to help
Myth
You won’t feel any difference for a very long time.
Reality
Many clients notice shifts within a few sessions — relief from holding things in, new coping tools, and fresh perspectives. Depth takes time, but progress starts early.
Myth #4: Seeking therapy is a sign of weakness
Myth
If I were stronger, I wouldn’t need therapy.
Reality
Asking for support is courageous. Prioritizing your mental health is a strong, responsible choice — much like seeing a doctor for physical health.
Myth #5: Talking to friends is the same as therapy
Myth
Loved ones can fill the role of a therapist.
Reality
Friends and family are invaluable, but therapy provides a confidential, structured space with evidence-based methods and support focused entirely on you.
