Graduating From Therapy
Briefly

Therapy functions primarily to help individuals graduate from issues interfering with their lives or to assist them in coping with more persistent challenges. This process varies greatly among individuals. Some may experience therapy as a short-term remedy focused on resolving specific problems, while others may engage in long-term therapeutic relationships addressing ongoing emotional or existential struggles. The decision to conclude therapy is neither straightforward nor standardized; it hinges greatly on personal feelings and clinical insights. Reflection and individual growth characterize the therapeutic journey for many, regardless of its duration.
Therapy typically serves one of two primary purposes: to get over a problem interfering with their lives or to learn how to live with a problem.
Understanding when to conclude therapy is a complex personal and clinical judgment, focusing more on what feels right than reaching a final milestone.
