Is Your Therapy Working? 9 Signs Your Therapist Is Helping You

Your relationships with others start to improve

When your relationships with others start to become stronger or you start to form new relationships more easily, it’s a sign that your therapy is working. “People start to respond to the improvements that they see in their friends and family members, so they are more likely to include that person, and be more open,” says Michael J.
