Finding a good therapist if a great next step. It ight be that the first therapist you see is not the right one for you. It is really important to find someone you feel safe with and feel a strong connection with. That doesn't happen right away. But listen to your instincts.
Do you know if you have a history of trauma? Is so, (and maybe even if you don't know, but suspect) I would strongly recommend looking for someone who specifically mentions treating trauma. Not all therapists are trained in trauma therapy, and it is imperative to have a therapist who has a solid understanding of trauma and its impact on human development when there ischildhood trauma involved.
