TheraBasics

TheraBasics created a line of products that we think will transform the experience of therapy. The products are easy to use, designed to help organize therapeutic interventions, integrate notes, and incorporate client-centered goals into daily life. We are actively trying to reduce the mental health stigma by getting people excited about therapy.

“More than half of people with mental illness don't seek help for their disorders.” Many people avoid or delay seeking treatment due to many fears. That's because stigma, prejudice, and discrimination against people with mental illness is still very much a problem (American Psychological Association, 2020)”

According to the American Psychological Association, stigma and discrimination can make mental health symptoms worse and can create additional problems such as:

• reduced hope

• lower self-esteem

• increased psychiatric symptoms

• difficulties with social relationships

• reduced likelihood of staying with treatment

• more difficulties at work

We must break the stigma. Many celebrities, such as Demi Lovato, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Michael Phelps, Taraji P. Henson, and Lady Gaga, are opening up and sharing their struggles with mental illness. They have made the conversations more comfortable.

Deciding to go to therapy is not a huge step; it is a natural step. An important step that we would like to make a little easier. Like in school, you need to have all of your tools to be successful for a class; you need those same therapy tools. 

TheraBasics have created a line of products so that clients can feel empowered when they have their first therapy session. You can put some of your basic fears at ease with a one-time purchase of our TheraCommunity membership.
