My H and I were just talking about this tonight. I’ve been to therapy 4 times - when our son died, when we were having issues in our marriage, when my mom got sick, and when my parens died. I found it incredibly helpful every time, for different reasons. There is something incredibly helpful in talking to a professional who isn’t emotionally invested in the situation and can be totally impartial.
I found the experiences to be very affirming and positive and would recommend it to anyone who is struggling.
