In all it’s variations, therapy is always a space that you can enter in order to talk about yourself. Speaking often produces a liberating effect that is quickly felt. In the longer term, it could lead to a real change.
Yet therapy is not just a space. It is also the time – the time that you dedicate to examine your life. And, most importantly, it is also a relationship. There is another person in that space, listening to you carefully, curiously, without judgement.
That person is the therapist.
