How do I know if I need therapy?

If you are feeling stuck, not quite satisfied with how your life is going, are in a crisis, or simply want to focus on personal growth, therapy may be right for you. You do not need a psychological diagnosis to benefit from counselling or psychotherapy. Therapy can help you to understand yourself better, to see things in a new way, and to discover new ways of interacting with others. Therapy may also be beneficial to you if you are experiencing emotional suffering, if you are not able to accomplish things like you used to be able to, or if other people that you trust have expressed concerns about how you are doing. Finally, therapy may be for you if you are experiencing symptoms of a mental disorder such as depression, social anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, etc.
