What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy isn’t just one type of treatment; it includes all kinds of talk therapy that help with the full scope of mental health concerns.

Through counseling, you can identify and explore the impact of your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, and learn how to function better. The goal is to change problematic behaviors and increase your overall well-being so you can move forward into a fulfilling life.

Which conditions are treatable with psychotherapy?

Most mental health concerns benefit from psychotherapy. Even when patients take medications to manage their symptoms, research shows that combining medications and psychotherapy leads to the best results.

When you’ve been diagnosed with a mental health disorder, counseling can help because it’s individualized to meet your immediate and future needs.
