Common Reasons Why Woman Therapy Can Help With Happiness

Let’s discuss the benefits of woman therapy and why you should go to a therapist to be a healthier and happier you!

I know how difficult things can get. But with our push-through-anything mindset, we harm our mental health more than we know. I don’t know where this mindset came from – most probably it has been passed down through generations! But to be honest, we need to end it here and make sure that we talk about our feelings to a professional who listens without judgement and helps us to have a positive outlook on life!!! 😊

Somewhere down the line, we have stopped listening to our bodies and mental health and are functioning on autopilot for most things. I know how hard that can be to get out of that routine because we’ve become so used to it. But why should you go to a good woman’s therapist, and how does it help?

Depression

I suffer from depression, and so does most of my family – mental health is more common than you know! And with that all, it gets a bit too much for me to handle. I am constantly thinking about the pressures and triggers. But it gets a lot. I am naturally a super strong person and can handle whatever life throws at me haha. 

I know depression isn’t easy to handle or even talk about. But having a support group of women that encourage you to live your best life and get you out of the depression phase is so essential. And believe it or not, woman therapy is one of the ways to help cope with depression. To live a happy life for the future. 

Anxiety 

Aaghhhhh, the most common problem and condition that can make or break a day!! I would even say that anxiety is so common, and guess what, most people don’t even know they suffer from it. It’s such a thing that is present but not a lot of people get treated for it to help manage it.

That is why women’s therapy can change the way you think and help manage your anxiety triggers. Anxiety comes in many forms, some that are visible and some that are just in your head that no one else can see (but yourself of course)!!

Adjusting to life

Be it change, moving to a new city or adjusting to new circumstances around you, it can be hard AF. From my own experience, it was super hard for me to move to a different country and have no friends – adjusting was hard you have no idea lol. 

Adding in weekly sessions of therapy can help understand your feelings a bit better and make sure that you are happier and healthier wherever you are. 

Relationships and Family Issues

I love my family to bits and pieces lol. I wouldn’t be here without them. For me, because of my culture as well, family can make it hard for you to live happily. What I really want to start doing this year is going to therapy with my mum and working out situations that can build a stronger bond and bring that motherly-daughter bond back together again. 

I love my mum to absolute bits and can’t function without her. But sometimes, because of that, I feel like it gets too much (for both of us haha). We’re so close but too close – if you know what I mean! I think a woman therapy session can do everyone some good, especially when relationships get tough. 

Moods 

I am an emotional rollercoaster lol hahaha, and to be frank, it hinders my routine – sudden bursts of happiness, sadness and anger along with a lot of negativity and self-doubt. I went to one therapy session and started balling my eyes out, it was very emotional for me (especially because I am such a strong person and pride myself on being so).

But sometimes, being too strong isn’t good either. Going to a therapy session for your mood can actually help to manage it and lead a healthier life ahead. A lot of times, our moods tend to ruin our happiness and peace. With proper therapy sessions, you can learn all about triggers, stressors and ways to manage your mood that’ll help to lead the life you want (and deserve)!! 😊

Grief and loss

I know it’s hard to imagine living without your nearest and dearest people. I love my family and friends and cannot imagine my life without them. But loss and grief are a part of life that is uncontrollable.

Sometimes, therapy can be the only solution to handle those situations and get you through them. With therapy, you can have a space to talk about your feelings, and emotions and really work towards acknowledging your grief and finding healthy ways to get through them. Helping to slow down and find the balance. 

Growth and life in general

We are always too busy, constantly doing something or the other. Moving from one pace to the next and not really focusing on ourselves and our lives. That is negative and can create a toxic vibe and a feeling of being stuck. I know that because we are always thinking about “what next”, we don’t enjoy the moment.

Woman therapy can help find that balance and work on your personal and professional growth, focusing on yourself and creating the life you want (with some guidance :)).

Creating a safe space

I know that most times, I don’t feel safe when I talk about my emotions and then tend to hold them in (until it all bursts out haha). But female therapy can help to create that safe space you’ve always craved and help to build on what you already have, creating a healthy mindset and support from other women.

Body positivity and self-image

I know that a lot of women don’t feel confident in their bodies and constantly think about ways to change their appearance. There’s nothing bad with wanting to change (but it should be for the right reasons). You need to feel confident in your own self and have a positive outlook on your body and self-worth. Therapy can help build on that and increase self-love, self-worth and body acceptance. 

Dear Misfits

I know how hard it can be to take the first step to go into woman’s therapy and that journey towards it. Your outlook on therapy might not be positive at first, but it can do a lot of good. Positive changes are the ones that will bring the most happiness and contentment in your life – trust me on that! Let’s all make the first step and seek therapy and advice from people who are trained in doing so. 

If you know of anyone who is seeking therapy, support them. If you want to go yourself, make that move and watch how it changes your perspective. 

If you have been to woman therapy sessions before, let me know in the comments! 

Note: I might be starting an advice column section, so stay tuned for that 😊!
