HOW LONG DOES THERAPY TAKE ?      

How long did it take you to get this way?

Short-term therapy exists and is viable, but there are no overnight cures.  People have different goals upon entering psychotherapy and therapy will "go" as fast as you go.  Every person is unique and progress varies.  Therapy will last as long as you want it to until you accomplish your aims.


  DOES BEING IN THERAPY MEAN I'M CRAZY ?      

You may indeed be crazy, however, being in therapy is NOT the defining mark of mental illness. On the contrary, entering psychotherapy demonstrates intelligence, acknowledgement of personal issues, and the desire to become more self-aware.
