How to Know It’s Time to Start Therapy
There’s rarely a perfect time to start therapy. Most people wait longer than they need to. Maybe you’ve been holding it together for months. Maybe you’re feeling disconnected, burnt out, or just not yourself lately. If that sounds familiar, it might be time.
You Don’t Have to Hit Rock Bottom
You don’t need a major breakdown to justify getting support. Therapy isn’t only for emergencies. It’s for anyone who wants to live with more clarity, more peace, and more intention. If something’s been weighing on you or you’re tired of trying to figure it all out alone, that’s reason enough.
Signs You Might Be Ready
You’re feeling overwhelmed more often than not
You’re snapping at people or shutting down
Your sleep or appetite is off
You’re withdrawing or isolating
You feel like you’re always “on” and never fully at rest
You’ve been through something hard and haven’t had space to process it
You want to understand yourself more, even if nothing feels “wrong”
Therapy Isn’t a Last Resort
It’s a place to pause, check in, and reset. It’s a space where you don’t have to be strong for anyone else. Where you don’t have to pretend to have it all together. You can just be human.
If You’re Wondering If It’s Time
It probably is. And that’s not something to be ashamed of. That’s something to be proud of. Reaching out is a sign that some part of you still believes in the possibility of change. And that part deserves to be heard.
