Psychotherapy at The Heath

Psychotherapy is best known as a form of treatment for psychological, emotional, or behavioural problems and is a process that allows you to come to a fuller understanding of your abilities, difficulties, motivations or worries. The process involves talking about issues or problems that cause difficulty for you, and that perhaps have been around for quite a while.

Using a more in-depth approach than counselling, psychotherapy often looks at your life as a whole rather than focusing on specific concerns in the here and now. Some approaches to psychotherapy pay a lot of attention to our upbringing, as patterns set while we are young create some of the difficulties we encounter when older.

To summarise, psychotherapy gives you the tools you need to solve your problems and realise your dreams. It helps you to reconnect to the source of power, pride, and confidence in yourself that will enable you to do anything you want.

Is Psychotherapy Effective?

Research on psychotherapy can be difficult as its very nature is about change. However studies do show that many clients gain considerable benefit from psychotherapy with the right person. With an effective therapist, science has shown that psychotherapy even works better in the long-term, and is more enduring, than medication. In fact, not only is it more cost-effective, but psychotherapy leads to fewer relapses of anxiety and mild to moderate depression than medication use alone

What Conditions Can Psychotherapy Be Used For?

Psychotherapy can be used to treat a wide range of mental health conditions and signs that you could benefit from therapy include:

  • You feel an overwhelming, prolonged sense of helplessness and sadness
  • Your problems don't seem to get better despite your efforts and help from family and friends
  • You find it difficult to concentrate on work assignments or to carry out other everyday activities
  • You worry excessively, expect the worst or are constantly on edge
  • Your actions, such as drinking too much alcohol, using drugs or being aggressive, are harming you or others
