The world is changing, and we can all feel and see it. The value of taking care of our mental health is becoming increasingly important, as we become more aware of our past and as we step into our future together. You may be feeling anxious, depressed, confused, lost, or you may simply not know how to feel or what to feel. You may have difficulty communicating. You may be feeling good but just want to explore yourself or are curious to grow in unique and different ways. Maybe you are having relationship issues, or maybe you want to reconnect to spirituality. These are all wonderful reasons to talk to a counsellor.

Are there aspects of your life that feel daunting, overwhelming, or difficult to manage? Does it feel like no one really understands you? Maybe you've had friends or family members suggest that you give therapy a try. Maybe you've come to that conclusion on your own. Either way, you may be asking yourself, "How will therapy help me? What will my therapist say? Are they just going to analyze me and tell me what I should be doing differently?"
