Considering counseling but still not sold? Millions of people suffer from depression or anxiety at some point in their lifetime. Cognitive behavioral therapy (talk therapy) helps those struggling with depression, anxiety, unresolved past trauma, relationships, PTSD, OCD, and other common mental issues. Seeking counseling is a sign of strength, not weakness. Therapists are trained listeners that help clients resolve issues and see the bigger picture. Most insurances cover counseling just like a doctor's visit so there's no excuse not to try it!
