This is wonderful to highlight the act of baking as a cathartic activity to help cope with the hard times and stressors of life. Perhaps renaming the article to reflect as such, rather than labeling it "therapy" might help to clarify what the article is trying to convey. In these tough times, many of us are and should be turning to mental health professionals for therapy to help us learn about patterns and behaviors that may be keeping us stuck, process hard things, and learn additional coping skills. It's important to make the distinction between therapy (treatment) and coping skills and behaviors. Thank you!
