What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is a form of treatment for mental health problems that involves talking with a trained mental health professional, such as a psychologist or licensed therapist. It is sometimes called “talk therapy” or simply “therapy.”
Psychotherapy involves a collaborative and confidential relationship between the therapist and the client, aimed at helping the client to better understand and manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The therapist may use a variety of techniques to help the client, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychoanalytic therapy, or humanistic therapy.
The goal of psychotherapy is to help individuals overcome emotional and psychological difficulties that are causing distress or impairing their functioning. This may include symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, or other mental health conditions. The therapist provides a supportive and non-judgmental environment in which the client can explore their thoughts and feelings, gain insight into their experiences, and develop coping strategies and skills to manage their symptoms. The length and frequency of therapy sessions can vary depending on the individual’s needs and the type of therapy being used.
