The decision to begin therapy can be a hard one to make since, understandably, people often try to utilize every OTHER resource available to them before seeking some expert assistance. Ultimately, however, there are times when one cannot reach resolution or feel at peace with oneself unless he or she can work some things out in therapy. The circumstances that can bring a person to therapy can range from being a longstanding issue to being a very new situation of concern. As unfamiliar and perhaps scary as it can be to start therapy, and in spite of any still enduring ERRONEOUS beliefs about people who go to therapy being “crazy” or “weak” or “dependent,” it is frequently the HEALTHIER AND EMOTIONALLY STRONGER person who comes to counseling rather than someone who keeps running away from or denying any need for help.
