To Whom it may Concern,
I am writing this email in hopes that my experience in therapy can help encourage someone on their journey of mental health. I am a survivor of childhood abuse. My entire life was spent under the control of an abusive alcoholic father. The trauma left me unable to cope with other aspects of my life and the inability to move forward in other relationships. Ultimately, after becoming a mother, I realized I needed help. I wanted the generational cycle of abuse to end with me. I was tired of feeling hopeless, worthless, and in a constant state of fight or flight. That was when I reached out to Evergreen Behavioral Health and was matched with the most incredible therapist. Kat has truly saved my life!
It was very difficult to take this step, as I was always taught (by my abuser) that therapy was a scam, a place to be brainwashed. All I can say is I wish that I had asked for help sooner than I did. It saved my life and I hope it can save someone else.
Thank you
