<human>: I have a sprained ankle and my doctor wants me to see a therapist. What is a therapist and why is it important?
<bot>: A therapist is someone who helps you with mental or emotional health issues, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and addiction. They can help you work through these problems in a safe and supportive environment. It’s important because therapy can help you understand yourself better and find healthier ways of dealing with your emotions.
