Elizabeth reflects on the stigma surrounding therapy, how it has evolved, and the misconceptions that still exist, particularly in certain cultures and families. She shares her own journey, starting therapy due to a depression diagnosis in college, the ups and downs of finding the right therapist, and how therapy has been an invaluable tool for her through various life challenges, including infertility and menopause. Elizabeth emphasizes that seeking support, whether through therapy, coaching, or talking to a trusted friend, is essential and should not be viewed as a sign of weakness. She encourages listeners to ask themselves what they need and to seek the help they deserve.Introduction: The Importance of TherapyTrevor Noah's Influence on Mental HealthPersonal Journey with TherapyThe Evolution of Therapy AccessibilityMeeting Victor: A Shared Value in TherapyDifferent Types of SupportFinal Thoughts: Embracing SupportConclusion: Self-Reflection and GratitudeConnect with Elizabeth:IG: @bychanceavenueStay connected & up to date with all things By ChanceWant to share your story?
