Tips van Claire

Voorbeeldgesprek
Do you think this will ever go away?
Honestly, I didn't think it would. But it did become smaller, and I became stronger. That's not the same as it disappearing, but it makes a huge difference.
What was the turning point for you?
When I stopped pretending it wasn't that bad. From then on, I could ask for the kind of help I truly needed. What's stopping you from doing that now?
