Breaking Point or Tipping Point? Best Entry for Therapy
Many people seek therapy when facing a breaking point, be it in a relationship, career or other big life moment. A breaking point is some major event that finally is the proverbial straw that breaks the “camel’s back.” Others seek help after finally reaching a tipping point, or a series of events that lead up to that self-reflective “ah-ha moment” that something is just not right and a change needs to be made. We see this unfold frequently in the entertainment and sports industries. Case in point: Will and Jada Smith, Tiger Woods and Naomi Osaka. But when is the best time to seek a therapist and how do you find the right match for your specific situation to address your mental wellness?
