Therapy can help you develop skills and strategies to improve your well-being.

There are many good reasons for therapy and ways it may help you, such as:

• having a better understanding of your mental health
• developing wellness goals
• identifying triggers that lead to symptoms or unhealthy behaviors
• improving interpersonal relationships
• coping with stress
• creating a personal plan for a mental health crisis
• making sense of past trauma
• overcoming fears
• creating routine and stability

Talk therapy works a bit differently for everyone. Most people who participate in psychotherapy experience some benefit from the process, both in the short and long term.
