Do I Need Therapy?

If you’ve ever wondered, “Do I really need therapy?”—you’re not alone. Many people hesitate to reach out for help until things feel truly overwhelming. But the truth is, therapy isn’t just for times of crisis. It’s for anyone who wants to better understand themselves, improve their relationships, manage stress, or simply feel more grounded in daily life.

Therapy Isn’t a Last Resort

You don’t need to “have it all fall apart” before seeking help. Therapy can be a proactive step toward emotional health. Maybe you're:

Feeling anxious or irritable more often than usual

Struggling to adjust to a life change (like a move, job transition, or parenting shift)

Watching your teen withdraw or act out and not knowing what to do

Going through a period of sadness, burnout, or loss of motivation

Noticing patterns in relationships that feel stuck or frustrating

Waking up feeling heavy, even when nothing “seems wrong”

All of these are valid reasons to begin therapy.

What Happens in Therapy?

Therapy is a collaborative space where we explore what’s going on in your life and help you move forward. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, alongside a warm, person-centered style.

If you're a parent, I also offer support around family dynamics and parenting challenges. If you're a teen, we work at your pace—with respect and zero pressure.

How Do I Know If It’s Time?

If you’re asking the question, it’s probably time. You don’t need to wait until things get worse to start feeling better. Therapy is a gift you can give yourself—one that can lead to more insight, resilience, and peace of mind.

Located in Lone Tree, Colorado, I work with teens and adults across the state through both in-person and online therapy sessions. If you’re curious or unsure, you’re welcome to reach out with questions—there’s no pressure.
