Normal Things That Happen in Therapy

Therapy is not about saying the perfect thing. In fact, some of the most meaningful moments happen when you don’t know where to start, can’t find the words, or wonder if therapy is even helping.

Experiences in Therapy

In therapy you might:

• You get uncomfortable

• Wonder if it's even working

• Don't know how to word feelings

• You learn about yourself

• You don't know where to start

• Saying “I'm fine” when you're not

• Leave with something to think about

• You get emotional

• You have a breakthrough

Feeling uncomfortable, emotional, confused, or stuck is often part of the process.

Growth rarely happens in a straight line. It happens through curiosity, reflection, and the courage to keep showing up.

If you’ve ever thought, “Am I doing therapy right?” the answer is probably yes.
