Not Another Therapist!
I’ve been plagued with mental health issues for the majority of my life, spending countless years in in-patient and out-patient treatment, playing medication roulette and yes, I have gone through way too many therapists to count.
So when my doctor suggested that I once again see a therapist in late 2019, I just threw up my hands in frustration. The voice in my head kept saying, not another one! I’ve not had much success with therapists. However, I struck gold with the one I began seeing in late 2019. She has helped me heal in ways no one else has ever helped me. Here are a few:
- No more blaming.
- Letting go of anger, shame and pain.
- Total forgiveness to anyone who has wronged me — real or perceived.
- Better relationships with family, friends and my spouse.
And best of all — I am now content and happy!
