You don't need to have a diagnosis or be in a crisis to consider therapy. If something in your thoughts, emotions, relationships, or daily life feels difficult to manage or keeps getting in the way, therapy may be worth exploring.
Common questions
Considering Therapy?
It is normal to have questions before deciding whether therapy is right for you. Here are some answers that may help you understand when therapy could be useful and what you can expect from our approach.
No. Therapy isn't only for diagnosed mental health conditions. You can seek support for difficulties such as stress, overthinking, relationship concerns, low mood, anxiety, anger, life transitions, or recurring patterns that you would like to understand and change.
No. You don't have to wait until things become overwhelming before seeking support. Therapy can also be helpful when you notice that something isn't working well and you want to address it before it becomes more difficult to manage.
That's okay. You don't need to arrive with a diagnosis or a clear explanation of your problem. The initial sessions are an opportunity to understand what you're experiencing, what may be contributing to it, and what you would like to work towards.
Trying to manage difficulties yourself is common. If you've found yourself repeatedly struggling with the same thoughts, emotions, or patterns despite your efforts, therapy can provide a structured space to understand what's keeping those patterns going and learn different ways of responding.
Our therapy is evidence-based and collaborative, drawing primarily from Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT).
In the initial sessions, we will explain how we work and discuss whether our approach is appropriate for your concerns and goals.
