Psychotherapy

There are many different types of psychotherapy. They are all ways of helping people to overcome stress, emotional problems, relationship problems or troublesome habits. What they have in common is that they are all treatments based on talking to another person and sometimes doing things together. They are the "talking treatments". The person carrying out the treatment is usually called a therapist, the person being seen is usually referred to as the client.

As professional psychotherapists we are trained to help people to look at their situation from another angle. Having new insights helps people solve their problems naturally. As psychotherapists our job entails helping people rearrange their thought patterns towards being comfortable with who and what they are. Many people think of psychotherapy as lasting many years and being very intrusive, but with psychotherapy people are out of the therapy room as soon as possible.
