There are different kinds of therapy, though as a therapist your mother probably knows that. I don't think that therapy really is a last resort (in general, in your case I have no idea of course) and I think that sometimes people are resistant to the idea of therapy because of that idea. Of course, a lot of people also think that taking their car to the shop or going to the doctor are a last resort, when often its recommended that these be done as maintenance. I'm not trying to suggest that the mind is mechanistic in any way, just that sometimes we need some help, support or both from a person who isn't entangled in whatever stuff is giving us some difficulty.Damn, therapy was supposed to be like a last resort
