— We can reshape our attitude toward mental health issues, break the stigma that surrounds mental illness, and give everyday people practical skills to help them navigate society. There are many false notions surrounding therapy. People think it won’t help them and often believe it is only for “crazy people.” Therapy is an art just as much as it is a science—a dance between the two. Seeing a therapist simply means you have an unbiased person in your life to help you as you proceed on your journey—a professional clinician sitting with you and assisting you along your healing path. Prioritizing mental health has never been more important than it is today. You can connect with yourself and start working on some area of your mental health because you matter. This is Kaitlyn’s vision and mission.
