Caring for Our Mental Health: What is Mental Health, and Why Does it Matter?
Mental Health is a state of well-being that includes the emotional, psychological, and social aspects of our lives. It effects how we think, feel and act. It determines how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices.
What to Ask Yourself Before Starting Therapy
One of the biggest hurdles to seeking services is our own mental and emotional readiness. Therapy is a process that invites you to explore unresolved issues and difficult experiences. This can be difficult to navigate without some baseline of what you actually are looking for. Here are some questions to ask yourself that can guide you in preparing for therapy, and ultimately finding the best therapist for you!

Only when you recognize your feelings can you decide whether to change or influence them.
