Making the decision to come to therapy is often one of the hardest decisions for a person to make. You might know that you're having a hard time but perhaps you don't know what to expect from therapy. What will your therapist be like? Can you really trust them? Why would you tell a complete stranger everything about you? These are just a few questions that potential clients sometimes ask themselves before coming in. Although it can be an intimidating experience, it can also be one of the most rewarding experiences.

I want to help alleviate suffering, whether generated from past traumatizing experiences or from current experiences. I believe that we all have many answers and great potential inside us but are often blocked from accessing our own wisdom, meaning we only function on a modest amount of this potential.

You want to find peace, but the critical noise of “it’s just not good enough” controls and weighs you down. There’s a part of you that’s a high achiever with perfectionistic tendencies that feels exhausted and overwhelmed, riddled with self-doubt. The days go by in a flash as you strive to please and meet others: expectations, wants, and needs, while you’ve lost sight of your own. The present moment feels out of reach as you constantly think into the future or ruminate over the past.

Women's Issues Therapists

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?

Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?

As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?

Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
