Welcome to Myth Busting Mondays! Some people believe therapy is all talk and no action, just a space to vent. Let’s set the record straight.
Myth: “Therapy is just talking, it can’t change how my brain works.”
Reality:
Therapies like EMDR and CBT don’t just help you process thoughts, they actually help your brain form new, healthier patterns. These methods can calm the nervous system and shift how you hold memories. Evidence shows therapy can literally help your brain change how it responds to triggers and stress over time. It’s not just a chat; it’s a scientifically supported pathway for growth.
Were you surprised to learn therapy can physically transform the brain and body, not just the mind?
