Two therapists pull back the curtain on what actually happens in therapy and why it's so powerful for creating change in your life. 

• Therapy is for everyone, not just those with severe mental health issues
• The most impactful aspect of therapy is the connection with your therapist, more than any specific techniques
• Finding the right therapist is crucial - it's okay to "shop around" until you find someone you connect with
• Therapy often feels worse before it gets better as you unpack difficult emotions
• Therapy isn't about being "fixed" but developing sustainable skills for an ongoing journey
• The therapeutic relationship provides a unique space with unconditional positive regard
• Past coping mechanisms that once served us may no longer be helpful in our current lives
• Like a garden, our mental health has seasons that require different levels of attention
