Why Therapy ?

Mental health has an impact on all aspects of our lives- from our eating habits to our social relations. A healthy mind is a prerequisite for a healthy body and a fulfilling life. Given its strong influence, one might assume that it is a widely accepted and accessible topic. Sadly, this is untrue. Mental health continues to be highly stigmatized in most societies. With minimal knowledge about it, myths and misconceptions are pervasive about the subject.

​

We are sure you have heard at least one person in your life equate therapy with “just talking”. While conversation is an important and necessary part of therapy, there is much more to it that goes undiscussed because of ignorance and lack of proper resources for laypersons.

​

Therapy can help in acquiring skills that are beneficial for the entirety of one’s life. These skills include healthy coping with stress, regulating emotions, self-awareness, maintaining healthy social relations, etc. It is a robust support system that has your back when you feel yourself crumbling under the weight of the fast-paced life you’re living.

The pursuit of a healthy mind is a pursuit of happiness. Will Smith might not have said this, but take Purple Space’s word for it!
