About Therapy 

Therapy, also known as psychotherapy or counseling, is a collaborative process where you meet with a person trained to address and resolve challenging behaviors, beliefs, emotions, relationship concerns, and somatic (body-based) responses.
Starting therapy is a courageous and important step toward becoming the healthiest version of yourself and living a fulfilling life, regardless of the challenges you face. Through therapy, you can repair self-destructive patterns, heal painful feelings, improve your relationships, and develop new ways of coping and thriving.
