Listen as we discuss how some people might be nervous to start counseling.
Many People Are Nervous To Start Counseling
Being nervous, or anxious, or apprehensive to start counseling is very common. Come on, let us be real, this is a huge step for you. You have probably have been dealing with this stuff for a long time. You are used to holding everything in. Not letting the secret out. Not sharing those deep feelings.
You might be worried about what will happen if you do say out loud everything that has been bothering you. What if you open pandora’s box, and can’t handle any of the hard stuff that comes out? Feeling that way is very common too. One of the first things we will do together is go over all the different ways you use to cope with some of those hard feelings. I help you build up your positive coping skills so you know that you can handle the tough stuff. Just like building a house with a strong foundation. You need a solid foundation to help you get through the hard stuff that has been holding you back.
Two Things I Want You To Know If You Are Nervous To Start Counseling
#1 We go at your pace. If you want to tell me every single thing the first time we talk, that is totally fine. But if you want to just talk about some, not all, of the stuff, that is okay too. I know it is not easy to open up to anyone, much less a complete stranger. It takes time, and that is okay.
#2 There is hope. I know that you are going through a lot right now but I also know that healing is very possible. I have sooo much hope for you! I see people at the worst times of their lives, but I also see how much counseling can help, and I very much want to help you however I can.
