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 Appleton, WI 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.

Can I see a psychologist in person or online?

How long would I see a psychologist?

Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Appleton 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?

Psychologists are licensed mental health professionals who focus on diagnosing and treating mental illness. Each psychologist might have a specialty area of practice where they have extra training in treating a specific condition, but all psychologists have extensive training in helping people manage a wide variety of mental health concerns and challenges.

Even if you’re not sure about what you’re going through, our team of mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Appleton, WI is here to provide support. Consider calling our office today to set up your first appointment.

When To Consider Seeing a Psychologist

A licensed psychologist can help you work through mental disorders, difficult changes, emotional disturbances, or other issues. Their expertise allows them to help people dealing with both mild and severe problems, so don’t feel like your issues aren’t “bad enough” to require support.

Some common concerns managed by psychologists include:

  • Strained family relationships
  • Troubles with romantic relationships
  • Grief and loss
  • Sustained feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and isolation
  • Prolonged worry or stress
  • Sudden changes in appetite
  • Drastic mood shifts
  • Eating disorders
  • Low self-esteem
  • Substance abuse and addiction
  • Phobias

Your licensed psychologist will provide a comfortable, confidential environment where you can discuss your issues. They’ll work with you to understand your needs and goals so you can live a happier life. If you think working with a psychologist may be right for you, consider reaching out to us at Thriveworks Counseling in Appleton, WI.

How Psychotherapy Can Help

What your treatment looks like can depend on a few factors, such as the type of therapy your psychologist is using. Some of the most common types of talk therapy include:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT)
  • Interpersonal therapy
  • Psychodynamic therapy

The work you do with a licensed psychologist requires introspection and honesty — so it is not always easy. However, it can help you build crucial skills such as:

  • Feeling confident and empowered
  • Clear communication
  • Decision-making strategies
  • Coping mechanisms
  • Stress-reduction techniques

Working with a psychologist from Thriveworks Counseling in Appleton, WI, can help you manage your mental health and live your best life. Consider calling our office today to schedule your first session.

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
