The coaches, counselors, and therapists at Thriveworks Hanover are skilled, caring professionals who want to help you overcome your obstacles in in-person counseling or online counseling therapy. They understand just how beneficial mental health care is as they’ve seen firsthand how it can relieve their patients of harmful symptoms, equip them with positive emotional skills, and ultimately guide them in a much happier, healthier direction. Furthermore, they know that they can make a difference in your life.

Working Through Life’s Challenges with a Mental Health Professional

A therapist’s or counselor’s primary job is to help their clients manage or overcome whatever challenge they may be facing and ultimately live a better life. These challenges differ from person-to-person, but the following are commonly addressed in therapy:

• Harmful thoughts or feelings
• Low self-esteem
• Depression or anxiety
• Social isolation
• Relationship issues
• Major life transitions

The above are just a few items on this lengthy list. Whatever the case may be, a therapist, a counselor, or a life coach at Thriveworks Hanover can help the individual find healing. And ultimately guide them in leading a happier, more fulfilling life. Let’s paint a clearer picture of just how these providers might assist you. Imagine the following:

• You and your significant other are having a tough time lately. It seems that every time you try to have a conversation, it turns into a full-blown argument—and for no good reason. You fight about where to eat for dinner, whose turn it is to feed the dog, when you should leave for church, and on and on and on. Instead of continuing to live in an unhealthy and unhappy relationship, or ending it before you know if you can fix it, talk to a couples counselor. They can help you talk out your feelings, learn healthy communication strategies, and so much more.
• You’ve lived in the same city with the same people your entire life—up until now, that is. You finally gave in to that voice in your head telling you to welcome change and couldn’t be more excited about it. That’s not to say, however, that you aren’t feeling a little anxious about the whole thing. Your old routine got boring, but at least it was familiar and comfortable. What if you aren’t happy here like you hope? What if you hate your new job and don’t make any new friends? Instead of letting these negative thoughts take over, meet with a counselor or therapist. They can help you to adopt more rational thinking and also offer some assistance in adjusting to your new life.
• Everyone’s always known you as the goofy, happy-go-lucky friend—the one with a smile plastered onto her face. And you still maintain that character, but that’s just it: it used to be real, now it’s just a role that you play. For the past few months, you’ve been feeling overwhelmingly sad. And there’s no rhyme or reason to it, you just haven’t felt like yourself. Rather than hoping this weird funk goes away, reach out to a mental health professional. They can help you to explore your feelings and determine whether you’re developing a serious mental illness like depression.

Do you see how beneficial therapy can be? Whatever you’re going through, there is hope for healing. You just have to take that step to begin therapy—and give a mental health professional the opportunity to make an incredible difference in your life. Sure, you’ll have to do a little bit of work too, but together you and your provider can make some extraordinary advances. Again, it all starts with taking one single step.
