Seeking help for your mental health is a courageous step. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) reports that 50% of all lifetime mental health conditions begin by age 14 and 75% by age 24. Mental health affects everyone, and seeking therapy can greatly improve your overall well-being. NAMI also reports that nearly 26% of Pennsylvanians were unable to get the needed therapy for their mental health because of either access or coverage.

Benefits of therapy on your health
Therapy does more than help you talk through your issues—it can improve your overall health. Regular therapy for mental health can lower stress, reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, and help you sleep better. It can also boost your confidence, improve relationships, and give you tools to manage emotions in a healthy way. When your mind feels clearer and more balanced, your body often benefits too. Many people notice fewer headaches, less fatigue, and even improved heart health. Taking care of your mental health is a powerful step toward feeling better in all areas of your life.
Mental health is essential to overall well-being and should be prioritized just like physical health. While it’s common for people to seek out therapy when they’re facing challenges or struggling with mental health conditions, therapy can also be beneficial for maintaining good mental health.
