What You Might Be Experiencing

• There are things you’ve been carrying inside for a long time. Sometimes, when something triggers you, it’s like the wound rips open again—sharp and sudden. You ask yourself, “Am I just too sensitive? Am I too weak?”

• Maybe you’ve thought about trying therapy, but haven’t been able to take that first step. You’re starting to sense: “I think I need help.” But at the same time, fear, unease, and even shame creep in. You wonder:
  “Therapy is expensive… Will it really help?” “Is therapy something I can’t talk about? What will people think?” And maybe there’s a small, uncertain voice inside that says “Do I really need it? Or should I just hang on a bit longer?”

A Message from Lynn

• Seeking therapy doesn’t mean you’re too fragile—it means you’ve been strong for too long. Therapy isn’t about turning you into someone else. It’s about helping you come home to who you truly are.

• I know this path isn’t easy. Sometimes it hurts. Sometimes you cry. Sometimes you doubt yourself.
  But it takes true courage to turn around and face your wounds—and choose to heal them with compassion. You’re not broken. You’re simply choosing to face life with maturity and honesty.

Reshape your thoughts

• Therapy isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a mark of growth— A sign that you’re willing to pause, sit in a safe space, and bravely face your inner shadows. It’s not an escape. It’s an act of tremendous courage.

• Therapy is a journey of inner growth. When you begin to turn inward and truly see yourself, you’ll start to loosen the grip of guilt and self-doubt. You’ll relearn how to accept, even appreciate, who you are. Taking care of yourself doesn’t mean you’ll become disconnected from the world—It means you’ll better understand how to connect with others gently, and with greater depth.
