What is Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is a process focused on helping you heal and learn more constructive ways to deal with the problems or issues within your life. It can also be a supportive process when going through a difficult period or under increased stress. For some people, there continues to be a stigma attached to psychotherapy. Some may believe that if a person goes to psychotherapy, there must be "something wrong" with them, or that they might be "crazy."

On the contrary, psychotherapy can instead be seen as a tool for achieving growth and reaching goals and improving quality of life. While it may be a specific problem that brings someone to treatment, focus in therapy can be on solutions... identifying what your goals are and working effectively toward them.

7 Reasons why people may go to Psychotherapy
