someone who wants to help. some people are in really bad places mentally and want to get out, others might just want to check in to make sure that they are still in a good place mentally, like a check up, probably not necessary, but could still be good for you. other people might just want to check in on their condition. some other people might just want help making a hard decision. I have multiple degrees in psychology, and have been a therapist for the past 12 years.
