For most people, therapy is a time that’s dedicated to whatever the patient wants, whether that’s venting about a loved one, talking about a stressor at work or diving deep into monumental events in your childhood.
Oftentimes, what comes from these deep conversations are uncomfortable truths about yourself — how your behavior contributes to a problem in your life, your thought process regarding certain situations, the way you treat loved ones and more. These moments can feel like “aha moments” or breakthroughs, according to Taisha Caldwell-Harvey, a licensed psychologist and the founder and CEO of The Black Girl Doctor, an online therapy and wellness platform.
