#TherapyThursday

My oldest daughter said to me once, "Mom, you think everyone needs therapy (counseling)?!" And my answer was, "Yes, of course!" And I stand by that. The reason I do is because we all have *stuff* that we should look at closely and decide what to do with it. And a lot of times that *stuff* needs the eye of someone not attached to us or it. That someone will have a clarity we probably won't, they will be able to offer insights we can't see on our own, they will have a purer response because they will lack the emotional ties to the *stuff*. So yes, I believe all people can benefit from therapy and should do it at least once in their lives.

Albert points out a really important reason, in my opinion, for therapy. Someone not so attached to our lives can help us figure out new ways of thinking. We all need that.

If you haven't been to therapy before, or if you have, here's a head's up I thought was really good to have.
