19: Is It Time for Therapy? Understanding When to Reach Out for Help

19: Is It Time for Therapy? Understanding When to Reach Out for Help

Admitting I couldn't handle everything on my own felt like a huge step.

Maybe you can relate?

Today on The Overwhelm Cure, we're diving into something super important, and honestly, something I think we all wrestle with at some point: knowing when to seek professional support.

I've had a lot of conversations lately, both with clients and in my own life, about feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn. It got me thinking about how hard it can be to admit we need help and what that journey actually looks like.

So, I thought it would be really helpful to break down some of those barriers we put up and talk about the incredible value of reaching out to a psychologist when things get tough for you.

Action Steps:

  • Recognize where you seem to be struggling on repeat
  • Know that we're not meant to be perfect at everything
  • You are the only one who knows when it's time to reach out for more support

5 Key Takeaways:

  1. It takes bravery to seek help, and acknowledging you need support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
  2. Many of us have the same fears and hesitations about therapy (they're very normal). You're not alone in how you feel.
  3. Therapy isn't about being "fixed" — it's about understanding your patterns and making choices that serve you better.
  4. You're the expert on YOUR experience, and if something is bothering YOU, it's worth exploring with a professional.
  5. Investing in your mental and emotional well-being is investing in your overall happiness and quality of life.
