This Is Not Therapy

This Is Not Therapy is a trauma-informed guide for young adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn, but still need real support. It breaks down the difference between therapy, coaching, advocacy, and advisory support in a clear, non-judgmental way, so you can choose what actually fits your situation. You’ll learn what safe, ethical support looks like, what red flags to watch for in unlicensed “healing” spaces, and how to organize your thoughts when life feels chaotic. If you’ve ever struggled to explain what happened, felt misunderstood, or just needed structure more than motivation—this book is for you.
