When to Seek Help

Deciding to seek assistance from a professional is a difficult decision for many. However, there are some basic facts and situations that might help you to make that decision. Some situations require immediate, critical assistance (such as having suicidal or homicidal thoughts or actions) and others are less threatening but would benefit from guidance from a professional. Generally, if you have been feeling very stressed, depressed, worried and/or anxious over a few weeks AND it is beginning to interfere with your life and your usual coping skills have not been able to solve the problem, then it would be advisable to seek a professional therapist.

Excellent Reasons to Seek Help

You (or your child, significant other, parent, friend) should consider psychotherapy and or life/career coaching for any of the following situations:
