Whether You Are Single or In A Relationship, Therapy Is for Everyone


One of the main aspects of therapy is growth. Now, growth can be personal, professional or both. Growth can also on an individualistic level or companionship level. That is the reason of the title of this blog. Therapy is for everyone. It is not just for a couple who fights all the time or an individual who is perpetually single. Therapy is for anyone looking to break the chain of events and work on self-healing. There are different forms of therapy, yes. But the goal of all forms of therapy is betterment. In couple therapy, the goal is to repair a relationship that is seemingly broken and irreparable. In group therapy, the goal is for a bunch of people to notice self-growth and go home either a better person, or better equipped with handling issues in their lives.

Pop culture tells us that anyone who goes for therapy is broken and sad and depressed. That is not entirely true. Some people go for therapy just because they feel they are in a rut and that they need to change the sequence of events happening in their lives. That usually starts with self-improvement. Hence, such people seek therapy in the form of group therapy or personal therapy. People often confuse support groups and group therapy to be the same, but they are not. The fundamental difference is that for a support group, the end goal is just support, but group therapy, it is improvement. It is important to know that because the kind of people these are suitable for, also differ. At the end of the day, it is all about improving. Whether that is improving yourself, or the relationship you are a part of.

MENDING AND HEALING RELAITONSHIPS

There is no relationship in the world that does not face problems between the two people. When we talk about a relationship, we have to keep in mind that we are talking about two different individuals coming together to form a beautiful bond of love. Two people with different ideologies and different thinking striving to be accommodating of each other’s needs and maintaining a balance in their own. This system of accommodating and acceptance is going to have a little bit of friction leading to minor fights. But what is important, is how the two people make up after the fight and whether they accept and move on from the incident. Sometimes, a fight or a situation can be so gruesome that both or one of the individuals cannot let go of it. That is when they need the help of a relationship advisor who may be a friend close to the family, a family member or a professional who is trained to deal with couples’ issues on a daily basis. This relationship advisor’s main aim is to first...

COMBATTING DEPRESSION WITH FAMILY’S HELP

Feeling sad is normal. We all feel sad from time to time. The reasons for this sadness may vary. Death or loss of a close one, break up, failure, fight, are some of the instances that make us sad as humans. But eventually, we learn to accept the facts of what has happened, and we move on. Gradually, you feel better and you start living normally again. But what if, this sadness never goes away? What if, you keep feeling sad, and not knowing what is making you sad makes it worse? If these are some of the things that you feel, or know someone who feels this way, then it might be a sign of depression. Depression can happen to anybody.

HOW CHILDHOOD SCARS AFFECT ADULTHOOD

We all face different types of problems in our life. These can be problems in different areas in our lives. It could be our work, our family, our love life, relationship with our friends, career related or something else. Nobody is totally happy and without problems in life. But we have been bestowed with the ability to face these situations and find a solution for these problems on day to day basis. This is how life works after all. We face a problem, we tackle it and then we move forward to the next one waiting for us. Cycle of life as some people like to call it. But sometimes, due to some reasons, we may not be able to cope up with those problems. Nothing we do seems to work out or seems to ease the situation. This in turn leads to a lot of mental stress for an individual. There are many instances when one might seek help from people close to them. But if even that doesn’t seem to help, then maybe seeing a counselling psychologist might. In today’s world that moves forwar...
