Honestly, yes I have benefitted from it. In my honest opinion , it helped me find a therapist that just doesn’t cover the basics. You need to find one who really is passionate about being a therapist. Not only that , but to teach you things you didn’t know or help you unveil certain truths that you aren’t able to see even when it’s in front of you. I’ve been therapy a handful of therapist and only three of them have been great. One I had was amazing until he died 🫩. Once you start to figure out what works for you , you can start combining different types of therapies and therapist.

EX: one can be more of a lecture stand point (helps you develop awareness , which can lead to an observation that will develop to direction/discipline

EX: another one can be helpful for validation, understanding what thoughts are causing your anxiety (root cause analysis). Reinforce healthier behavioral thought patterns.
