Is Therapy Right for Me? How to Know When It’s Time to Reach Out
You Don’t Have to Wait for a Crisis
Many people think about starting therapy long before they actually reach out. Often, they push through stress, anxiety, relationship conflict, or burnout hoping things will just improve on their own.
The truth? You don’t have to wait until everything feels unmanageable before you ask for help.
Signs You Might Be Ready for Therapy
You feel anxious, irritable, or emotionally drained most of the time.
You’re having the same conflicts in your relationship and feel stuck.
You’re navigating a life change—divorce, job loss, new parenting, or relocation.
You feel disconnected from yourself or the people around you.
You just want someone to talk to who can help you sort through your thoughts and feelings.
If any of these feel familiar, therapy can offer clarity, perspective, and tools for moving forward.
What Therapy at Miller Counseling Looks Like
I work with adults, couples, and families here in Cornelius, NC, and also offer virtual therapy for residents throughout North Carolina. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters most to you—whether that’s repairing relationships, managing stress, or feeling more grounded in your day-to-day life.
My approach blends evidence-based techniques with deep listening and compassion, so you leave each session with something practical to use in your life.
It’s Okay to Just Start With a Conversation
You don’t have to commit to long-term therapy right away. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can talk briefly about what’s going on and answer any questions you may have.
If you’re curious about whether therapy is right for you, reaching out is the best way to find out.
