how to get the most out of therapy

how to get the most out of therapy.

1. be honest: i struggled a lot with this in the beginning of my sessions. remember, your therapist can’t help you if you are not communicating your needs. a good therapist will be able to help you be honest if that is something you struggle with, but be aware that you need help.

2. journal: my therapist told me to journal what we talked about during sessions because i always ended up forgetting everything by the next day. it helps ground yourself and gives you space to process what you need to work on.

3. action: PUT IN THE WORK. so many people think that they go to therapy and the work stops there. no bro. actually put into practice what your therapist tells you to do.

if any of you are thinking about going to therapy, i highly recommend! especially if you’ve been thinking about it for a while and are ready to make changes to your life.
