Going To Therapy For The First Time? Here’s What To Expect
Maybe it’s that extra weight you just can’t lose. Perhaps you’re struggling with infidelity. Or maybe you’re unhappy in your job, and need some guidance in figuring out what career will really make you happy. Or, it could be that you’re struggling with depression or anxiety.
If any of the above situations applies to your life, counseling could be helpful. So what’s stopping you? The way counseling (often used interchangeably with the word “therapy” — the differences between the two have more to do with the certifications of the provider) is portrayed in movies and TV shows can paint a “no way, that’s not for me” picture. But in reality, while there’s often a couch or a comfy chair, therapists are not detached, distracted listeners who charge an arm and a leg for an hour of their time. And just because you receive counseling doesn’t automatically mean that something is wrong with you, says Jeannie Bertoli, Ph.D., a relationship expert and counselor.
“People think, ‘I have to be in crisis,’ or, ‘The intensity of the issue has to be so bad that I go to therapy,’” Bertoli tells HuffPost. But often, people can benefit from therapy for something as simple as needing help reaching a specific goal.
