If you’re reading this, maybe you’ve been feeling stressed, anxious, or just “off” lately. Or maybe life feels overwhelming — school, friendships, family, or just figuring out who you are. Therapy can seem like a big step, but it’s actually a safe place where you come first.

Why Consider Therapy?

• You don’t have to go through tough times alone.
• Therapy helps you understand your thoughts and feelings better.
• It’s a judgment-free zone where you can talk about what’s really going on.
• You can learn tools to handle stress, anxiety, or other feelings.
• It’s about YOU — your goals, your pace.

What Happens in Therapy?

Therapy isn’t about sitting and talking for hours. It’s a conversation, sometimes with activities or even art and music, that helps you explore what you’re feeling and figure out ways to feel better. You decide what to share and what you want to work on.

Will Therapy Change Me?

Therapy is about helping you be your best self — not changing who you are. It’s a place to get stronger, more confident, and better able to handle whatever life throws your way.

How to Find the Right Therapist for You

• Look for someone who makes you feel comfortable.
• It’s okay to ask questions or try a few therapists before deciding.
• You can ask if they have experience working with teens.
• Remember, therapy is a partnership — you should feel respected and heard.

Taking the First Step

It’s normal to feel nervous or unsure. But reaching out for help shows strength. You deserve support, and therapy could be the place to find it.

Final Thought

If you’re struggling or just want someone to listen, therapy can help. You don’t have to have everything figured out — just take it one step at a time.
