I resonate with the idea of therapy as being sailing through a huge ocean where we have a mix of highs and lows and that having an anchor can help us sail through. Perhaps my desire to become a therapist comes from this idea of trying to be a catalyst in the journey of individuals. Perhaps psychology and therapy opens the doors for assisting people in being the anchor in their process for growth and change. In addition, the field also allows me to gain knowledge and have continued learning with the help of extensive research, workshops, seminars, which fulfils my thirst for knowledge. As we all know, our behaviour is influenced by multiple factors and hence being a therapist allows me to gain a dual perspective, one of my own and that of the client. Lastly, one thing which I stand by is that experiences can change and that the process is to heal.
