Starting Treatment With a Psychologist

What are psychologists?

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.

How do psychologists work?

Thriveworks psychologists in Albuquerque, NM provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.

How long would I see a psychologist?

Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Albuquerque is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.

Need more help deciding?

Imagine: Everything is starting to come together. You started your dream position at a new company. You’re working out five times a week and in the best shape of your life. You and your partner just got engaged and you’re in the middle of planning your wedding. How could life get any better?

Unfortunately, even with everything so right, you feel off. Sometimes you’re so overwhelmed before going into work that your heart starts racing, and you feel sick to your stomach before walking in the door. You’re also having problems sleeping at night because your mind is always racing with the “what ifs.” All you want to do is enjoy what’s happening in your life, but something is just not sitting right with you.

In the example above, you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety: racing thoughts, change in sleeping habits, fatigue, and excessive worry. You might be thinking that you really don’t have much to be anxious about, so why are you feeling this way? Anxiety doesn’t care if you’re in the best place of your life. When it flares up, it flares up. Fortunately, a licensed psychologist can help you find the root causes of your anxiety, help you manage your symptoms, and guide you to a happier, healthier way of living.

Whether you’re battling anxiety or coping with a significant loss, licensed psychologists can guide you in your journey to overcoming the problems holding you back. If there is something difficult that you’re dealing with and you’re in need of extra support, you’re in the right place. Here at Thriveworks Counseling in Albuquerque, NM, we have a team of psychologists who are readily available to help. In fact, they can help you as soon as tomorrow. All you have to do is give our office a call to schedule an appointment.

If you choose to pair up with a psychologist at Thriveworks in Albuquerque, they will create a tailor-made treatment plan just for you. They understand that every individual is unique and deserves personalized treatment.

Our psychologists can help you improve every area of your life, from your mental health to your most treasured relationships to your professional success and development.

This might mean talking about sensitive subjects and taking a deeper look at yourself as a whole. But we’re confident that you will find it to be well worth it.

Here is a list of common challenges that are addressed with our psychologists:

  • Managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or another mental health condition

Cody Hedrick is an outlier on the bell-shaped curve of therapist expertise. He is direct, sharp, well-informed and likable. He studiously avoids labeling and jargon, hippie New Age perspectives, and regular old BS. Her has a way of getting to the point with the fewest number of words with great clarity and directness. I highly recommend him to men young and old for one-on-one work on your relationship with yourself.
