For many people, the phrase “mental health counseling” conjures up images of major depressive disorder and panic disorder. And while these are two very valid, very common mental health concerns, they’re not the only reason people pursue psychotherapy (talk therapy) or counseling.
Consider the following scenarios:
- A pedestrian witnesses a horrendous car accident and is unable to sleep for weeks afterward. When she shuts her eyes, she remembers the sounds, smells, and sights of the wreckage.
- An employee has worked for the same company for 25 years. When a recession hits, they’re let go. Their job was a big part of their identity, and they’re afraid they’ll never be whole without it.
- A couple’s young child has begun scratching strangers. She started behaving this way after a school trip a few weeks ago. She won’t tell her parents what’s wrong.
The stigma behind getting help for mental and emotional health issues can sometimes feel immense and impassable. But so many of our friends, family, and colleagues deal with psychological and emotional challenges like the ones in the above scenarios. There is no shame in seeking out support when you need it.
Our emotional and mental well-being is as important as our physical wellness. Who we are on the inside matters and we can protect that inner self by giving it the attention, care, and energy it requires to prosper.
It’s never too late to start on the path to mental and emotional wellness. You deserve to be happy and whole. Our psychologists, therapists, clinical social workers, counselors, and other licensed mental health professionals can teach you the skills you need to face life’s internal and external challenges.
To learn how, schedule an appointment with us at Thriveworks Counseling New Orleans. Together, we can make a difference in your psychological health.
