A therapist can provide clarity
Family and their opinions aren’t going anywhere, but you do need a safe space to understand yourself and your wants/needs, away from their input. “Therapy can be useful in clarifying your values without all of the voices. A therapist has no background [on you]. The only info they have is what you give them,” says Dr. Jackson. “So therapy gives an opportunity to clarify without all of the extra voices around. They [the client] can be in a bubble in figuring out what’s important for them.”
