Escape The Dark Tunnel

Depression is complex and requires a holistic approach to addressing the issue. That includes an exploration of your mind and body, as well as your past experiences, present feelings, and future goals. Life can get better than you can even imagine, especially with the help of a therapist. Without actively working against your depression, life can continue to spiral downwards.

Leaving Depression Unaddressed Can Result In:

  • Inability to work or go to school
  • Difficulty in relationships or taking care of children
  • Increased risk of health issues
  • Hospitalization
  • Suicide

Getting Ready For Change

After your scheduled consultation has been completed, you will be emailed onboarding documents needed for officially starting therapy. Completing these documents with accurate information is the first step to getting ready for change.

Some people feel more nervous about scheduling a consultation than others. In order to feel more confident, there are things you can do to get your mind psychologically prepped for your consultation. Whether or not you come to the consultation with prepped notes, your therapist will ask you questions to ascertain your goals for therapy. If you would like a tool to bring for more consultation confidence, consider bringing notes on the bullet points below.

In order to prepare for this consultation, here are a few things you can do (this is optional):

  • Ask yourself why you are seeking therapy. Write some bullet points down, about 2 to 4, to be briefly discussed during your consultation.
  • Name about 2 to 4 feelings you are struggling with.
  • Write 2 to 4 things you are wanting to accomplish from therapy.
