Therapy has been crucial in my healing journey. It gave me the space to process the trauma I didn’t even know I was carrying. My therapist helped me break down the toxic patterns I was stuck in and guided me toward healthier coping mechanisms. What really stood out was learning how to set boundaries—something I struggled with for years. Therapy also helped me rebuild my self-worth, reminding me that I’m deserving of love and respect. It’s been a long road, but I finally feel like I’m regaining control over my life.

Honestly, therapy saved me. After leaving a toxic relationship, I didn’t even know who I was anymore. My therapist helped me pick up the pieces and figure out what had been broken in the first place. We worked through the emotional scars, from the gaslighting to the constant manipulation, and focused on rebuilding my sense of self. Therapy gave me tools to manage the anxiety and self-doubt that lingered long after the relationship ended. It’s helped me create a healthier mindset, and now I’m much more aware of what I deserve in future relationships.

Therapy helped me understand the depth of the emotional wounds caused by my toxic relationship. At first, I went in thinking I just needed to move on, but my therapist showed me that there was a lot more to unpack. We worked on identifying the toxic patterns and recognizing how they affected my behavior and mindset. Over time, I learned how to trust myself again and, most importantly, to forgive myself for staying in the relationship for as long as I did. Therapy has been a major part of my healing and growth.

I didn’t realize how much I needed therapy until I started. The effects of the toxic relationship ran deeper than I thought, affecting my confidence and the way I saw myself. Therapy gave me a safe space to talk about everything I had been holding inside—things I hadn’t even admitted to myself. My therapist helped me see the ways I was blaming myself for things that weren’t my fault. Little by little, we worked through the guilt and shame, and I’ve started to heal. I feel stronger now, more sure of who I am and what I want in future relationships.
