A 2024 Bloomberg Law survey found that 55% of attorneys experienced anxiety and 29% experienced depression that year alone, and over 40% delayed or avoided mental health treatment they knew they needed. The need for support is real—and so is the need for talking about it openly.

           Join the D.C. Bar LAP on Tuesday, September 22nd at 2pm ET for a candid, judgment-free discussion on therapy and the                   legal profession. The panel will unpack common myths about seeking help and explore questions that people often                              hesitate to ask out loud:  
                                 •    Who benefits from therapy?
                                 •    How do you know when it is time to reach out, and where do you start? 
                                 •    How do you find the right therapist and know when to part ways if it is not the right fit?
                                 •    How can you tell if therapy is working and how do you know when you are done?
