“The thought of going to therapy feels scary.
What if it doesn’t help?”

All feelings are real and inform us. Our clients at Watermark
Counseling have taught us that the thought of
going to therapy and making changes can feel scary and
uncertain. Even overwhelming. But we have learned that a quality
therapy experience makes a difference and does help.
We cannot always change our situation, but we can change how
we work with it. By reaching out to see us, you are already
making a positive difference in your circumstance!
