Let’s be real—therapy often gets a bad rap. Cue the clichés: lying on a couch, dramatic breakthroughs, awkward silences. But what actually happens in therapy is far more grounded—and human.
Think of therapy as a conversation with intention. It’s a space to slow down, check in, and untangle what’s been weighing on your mind. There’s no spotlight, no judgment, no “fixing.” Instead, therapy is about exploration:
🧠 How do your thoughts and feelings connect?
🧍🏽♀️ What does your body know that your brain might be missing?
💬 What do you really need right now?
A session might include grounding exercises, exploring a difficult memory, celebrating progress, or just holding space for the messy, in-between moments. You don’t need to have the perfect words—you just need to show up.
Destigmatizing therapy starts with telling the truth: therapy is a courageous, compassionate act of self-care. And what happens in the therapy room? Healing, connection, and a return to your most authentic self.
