Beginning therapy, especially for the first time, can feel like an intimidating task. I understand that firsthand. The hardest step is acknowledging you need extra support and there is no shame in that, only strength.

Often times, our environment or situations happening in our life can derail this and that's where therapy can provide a consistency.
