Healing is Not Linear: What to Expect in Therapy

Therapy isn’t a straight line, and healing rarely happens all at once. It’s a journey filled with forward steps, pauses, and sometimes setbacks — and that’s completely normal.

At 2 Birds Counseling, we want you to know that you’re not doing it wrong if it feels messy. Progress in therapy often looks like building self-awareness, practicing new tools, and learning to trust yourself again.

We’re here for every part of the process — not just the breakthroughs, but the hard days too. Because healing isn’t about getting it perfect. It’s about continuing to show up for yourself.
