Therapy Isn’t Just for When Everything Falls Apart


Hey yall! 

Have you ever had a person or even caught yourself saying "I dont need therapy theres nothing wrong with me." 

I find that  alot of people wait until life is on FIRE before even considering therapy. The relationship is falling apart, anxiety is unbearable, work is overwhelming, grief has become difficult to manage, and here you are completely burned out. Now therapy becomes the emergency room.

What if therapy could also be maintenance?

You don’t have to be in crisis or have gone through a traumatic past to benefit from having a space dedicated to understanding yourself. See that's what therapy boils down to no matter the style or therapist, its ALL ABOUT YOU and FINDING YOU!

Therapy can be where you learn your patterns before they become problems.

Where you improve communication before the relationship reaches its breaking point.

Where you process stress before burnout.

Where you learn boundaries.

Where you explore who you’re becoming.

Where you make healthier decisions because you understand yourself better.

Think about the other areas of life we invest in before something goes wrong. We exercise to maintain our bodies. We save money to prepare financially. We service our cars before the engine stops working.

Well guess what? Mental wellness deserves investment too.

At TreeTalk, we believe wealth starts with mental investments.

Sometimes that investment is healing something painful.

Sometimes it’s learning something new about yourself.

And sometimes it’s simply having a consistent place to check in and make sure you’re okay.


You don’t have to wait until you’re falling apart to decide your mental health deserves attention.


TreeTalk Takeaway:

Therapy doesn’t only have to help you get out of a bad place. It can help you build and maintain a healthier one.

  Welcome to the TreeTalk Virtual Treehouse 🌳 A place to talk, learn, reflect, and grow. Hey, y’all! I’m Christin N. Dickinson, a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of TreeTalk, PLLC. And I want to officially welcome you to the TreeTalk Virtual Treehouse. When I created TreeTalk, I wanted mental health conversations to feel different. I wanted to create spaces where people could learn about themselves, ask questions, challenge unhealthy patterns, and talk about the things we sometimes don’t know how to talk about. The Virtual Treehouse is an extension of that vision. So, what is the Virtual Treehouse? Think about an actual treehouse. It’s a place you climb into, get comfortable, talk, think, laugh, learn, and sometimes just get away from everything happening on the ground. That’s what I want this space to become, just virtually. Here, we’re going to talk about real mental health in real life. We may talk about anxiety and depression one week and...

When Someone You Love Is Struggling: How to Support Someone Experiencing Suicidal Thoughts

When someone you love tells you they’re struggling with suicidal thoughts, it can be terrifying. You may immediately start thinking: What am I supposed to say? What if I say the wrong thing? Should I leave them alone? Do I need to watch them all the time? What if something happens and I could have prevented it? Whether it’s your sibling, friend, partner, child, parent, coworker, or someone else you care about, supporting someone through suicidal thoughts can feel like an enormous responsibility. There is something important I want you to remember: You can be part of someone’s support system without becoming their entire safety system. 1. Listen Before You Try to Fix It Sometimes our first instinct is to make the person feel better. “Everything is going to be okay.” “Don’t think like that.” “You have so much to live for.” “But look at all the people who love you.” Those statements usually come from love, but someone experiencing suicidal thoughts may need something different first: a sa...
