If You’re Feeling Unsure, Read This Before You Click Away

As professional counselors who are also survivors we understand. It’s common to feel hesitant about starting counseling, with thoughts like, “I can handle this on my own,” or “What if it doesn’t help?” can keep you stuck.

Trying to work through the pain on your own isn’t working. Those frustrating conversations with people who just don’t get it are invalidating. Let us help you navigate the path to a more peaceful life.
