3 Reasons Why to Start Therapy in Minneapolis in 2022


  1. We're all experiencing trauma right now. Everyone is experiencing trauma right now. We have never maybe in your life maybe you have maybe not been in a pandemic and this is something that we are consistently adapting to change with. We don't know what to do. Yes, this is traumatic. I know that trauma is a buzzword to a lot of people out there. And trauma is only seen as a couple of different things according to clinical therapists’ language across the United States. Trauma is not breaking the nail unless you're like me who has a fucking baller ass nail person that does my nails and I would fucking cry at that if I just got them done. But that's technically not trauma. This is trauma. When we have trauma that’s not processed or properly treated, our brains and bodies remember this. The book, The Body Keeps the Score is a lot of therapists’ favorites when it comes to understanding how trauma affects us as humans. This is hard to process, your relationships have probably changed, your work-life balance has probably changed. Maybe you're moving from Minneapolis MN, maybe you've planned a wedding two or three times now, and had to push it back that many as well. There are so many things that are going on and having to adjust to these changes is why therapy in Minneapolis can really help you in 2022.

I urge you to try. I urge you to maybe set up a couple of different consultations with a few providers that might be your jam and the best of fit. Why? Because I care. I care about us opening up the conversation in normalizing mental health matters. I care about saying hey if you go to sex therapy you are stronger than the other person that is sitting at home with some sort of sexual concern or struggle and doing nothing about it. I want to be able to open up this conversation more so it helps reduce the stigma of mental health. I care about everyone out there that has ever considered going to therapy and flip flops back and forth for years, to say, you can do it I believe in you! You fucking got this. You slay all day!! If you forget that, come back here and say that affirmation to yourself about five times and you will feel different when you say that. When we go to therapy in Minneapolis, we learn about ourselves. We learn about things that we don't recognize. We understand things from a different perspective. We open our minds up to how others perceive us how we perceive ourselves, and if there are any spots that we don't understand about ourselves. Therapy in Minneapolis can truly help anyone from being good to being the fucking amazing, fabulous, boss-ass version of themselves honey!! If you are trying to find yourself or even process a life cycle transition to become the best version of who you are, therapy in Minneapolis is a great way to be able to focus on your personal growth. Is it scary? Sure. Is it worth it? Fuck yeah. Medications don't fix everything. And when we hold all this shit inside of our bodies, souls, minds, and hearts, we need a place to release it.
