5 Reasons Why Therapy Doesn’t Work for Some People
Therapy is often seen as the ultimate solution for mental health concerns, but it doesn't always work for everyone.
According to new data from BetterHelp, which surveyed 2,000 people, many struggle to have a breakthrough moment in therapy. Among those advised to seek therapy, 44% didn't follow through, with 75% citing trouble finding the right therapist and 74% stopping due to a poor match.
It’s easy to second-guess whether you’re somehow “too broken” to be “fixed,” or if your problems are too big even for a professional.
However, Esther Boykin, LMFT, founder of Group Therapy Associates in Washington, DC, says these assumptions are not accurate.
- Trouble finding the right therapist (75%)
