Psychotherapy

What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy, often referred to as talk therapy, is a method of treating mental health issues and emotional difficulties by talking with a trained therapist. It provides a safe, confidential space where individuals can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to better understand themselves and develop healthier coping strategies.

​

Psychotherapy can address a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and stress. There are various approaches to psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and person-centered therapy, each tailored to meet different needs.

​

The goal is to empower individuals to improve their mental well-being, develop resilience, and make positive changes in their lives.
