Therapy can help you function optimally, enhance your well-being and support you in your journey.
What are the different methods of Psychotherapy?

The approach will be decided based on the issue concerned & the client’s requirements.
How are counseling and psychotherapy different?

Why do I need a therapist if I can discuss the issue with my friends/ family?
Counseling is valuable whether a concern appears minimal or overwhelming. Therapists have years of formal training and use evidence-based interventions to support you. They empower and facilitate you to make an informed choice rather than forcing or offering you advice. People who engage in counseling often find the process helpful, to understand themselves better.
How would therapy help me?
Counseling and psychotherapy grant you the opportunity to talk with a trained professional. It gives you a safe, non-judgmental space and encourages you to understand your challenges better. You gain clarity, set realistic goals, and become a better version of yourself. In time, counseling will increase awareness about yourself, your situation, and the choices that are open to you. It will also provide you with structure and support in difficult times. The counselor will not give you advice or make you talk about anything you do not want to talk about.
