What Happens if I Tell My Therapist I Self Harm?

Self-harm is a serious problem for those suffering from a variety of mental diseases. It is usually expressed in the following ways of harming yourself:

  • Cutting;
  • Burning;
  • Biting;
  • Scratching;
  • Hitting;
  • Hair pulling;
  • Overdosing;
  • Taking pointless and dangerous risks.

Whenever you tell your therapist you self-harm, there is no need to worry. A therapist will never judge you or tell anyone about your problems. In URP you can always rely on our doctors as they always provide confidentiality, safety, and support for each patient. Your therapist will work with you to create a safety plan, which may include identifying coping strategies, alternative behaviors, and support systems to help manage the urge to self-harm.
