Question 1

What is therapy?

Accepted Answer

Therapy is a confidential space where you can talk openly about your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and challenges with a trained professional. It provides an opportunity to gain insight, develop coping strategies, and work towards positive change in a supportive and non-judgemental environment.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?
