Why does therapy work? One theory is that therapy is a part of learning. As you begin to learn and utilize different areas of the brain you create new neural pathwaysand connections, leading to a more balanced brain. Therapy is kind of like taking your brain to the gym once a week. The more you push it, the stronger it gets. Different therapies are like different exercises. Every client needs a specific type of trainer (therapist), so it’s important to find the ri...ght fit for you. Client’s typically show symptom improvement after their first session and according to Howard et al. (1986) 50% of therapy clients can be expected to exhibit clinically significant improvement in symptoms by 6-8 sessions, 75% by 26 sessions, and 85% by 52 sessions. It’s a gradual process but a solid investment into overall mental health. . . . #brain #therapy #psychologist #mentalhealth #health #wellness #mentalwellness #depression #anxiety #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthsupport #mentalhealthadvocate #mentalhealthwarrior #mentalhealthstigma #endthestigma #stopthestigma #normalizetherapy #therapy #counseling #breakthestigma #healing #recovery #askforhelp #psychology #psychologist #therapist #mentalhealthactioncampaign #doctor #menshealth See more

The COVID pandemic has impacted all of us in many different ways emotionally, physically and mentally. As a psychologist I am well aware of the impact it has had on all our communities. I wanted to offer up my support and services in any way that I can. I’m currently taking new clients for a reduced fee given the current crisis and the important need for mental health services at this time.
