Even though it’s been proven effective, mental health therapy goes unutilized by many people. The reasons for this are many, but in some cases, it is simply because the potential patient is nervous or anxious about what their therapy sessions will entail.
Maybe you are considering therapy for stress, anxiety, or many other reasons, but are not quite ready to make the call. You are in the right place! We are hoping that today’s blog helps ease your fears and guides you towards reaching out.
Here is what happens during a person’s first therapy appointment:
Dieting is tough, and even if it’s successful to begin with, around two-thirds of people eventually gain the weight back. Most people begin their weight loss journey with enthusiasm and commitment, only to give up at the first, second, or third hurdle. This is often repeated in a cycle which leads to frustration and feelings of hopelessness.
For these reasons and others, setting yourself up for success with a realistic diet plan is so important! Doing it through the help of a dietitian can help. A dietician can help identified a style of eating appropriate for your needs and help identify areas that have prevented you from being successful in the past, i.e. stress!

Are you in therapy, thinking about attending therapy, or curious about your mental health symptoms and what they mean? Your therapist or primary care physician might recommend a psychological assessment.
You may be anxious or scared to take steps toward a psychological assessment, but we are here to ease your anxiety. Many people take psychological assessments every day. They are meant to test your strengths and weakness but, as long as you give true effort, you can never fail it! Not only can these tests not be failed, but they are also not harder than any regular school test that you’ve taken before.
Most people are afraid of being evaluated and participating in a psychological test, but we are here to guide you through the process so it feels stress free and you know what to expect along the way.
Do you suffer from daily symptoms of anxiety that leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about the future? Does it feel, at times, that there is no light at the end of the “anxiety” tunnel? Do you suffer from chronic fatigue and negative thoughts throughout the day? Are there specific times or specific places when the anxiety feels more intense?
If so, give this technique a try…it will help guide your mind into a calmer state and can help you feel more connected and grounded with your body.
