Chances are, you lead a pretty busy life. Sometimes, your mental health can take a backseat to other issues. Concerns about your mood, thoughts, and behavior can feel overwhelming. Certain traumas or recurring symptoms disrupt daily life and make it difficult to enjoy the present moment. At other times, you might preoccupy yourself with tasks or hobbies to avoid something that negatively affects your emotional well-being.
We want you to know that you’re not alone — working with a mental health professional can help. Dedicated mental health experts regularly diagnose, treat, and prevent various disorders, such as major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
You can find vital support and guidance by working with a psychiatric provider, therapist, counselor, or another mental health professional from Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry College Station. Call our office today or use our convenient online scheduling tool to set up your first appointment.
What Is the Difference Between Therapy, Counseling, and Psychiatry?
Therapy, provided by our counselors and therapists, addresses emotional and behavioral challenges using therapeutic techniques for mental well-being. Counseling, offered by counselors or therapists, focuses on specific issues and life adjustments, while psychiatry, led by our psychiatric nurse practitioners, involves diagnosing and treating mental health conditions with medication.
What Are the Types of Therapists You Can See?
While availability may vary, at Thriveworks College Station, we offer:
- Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs): Focused on relationship and family-related issues.
- Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs): Specialized in social work and counseling for individuals, families, and groups.
- Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs): Trained to offer counseling services for various emotional and mental health issues.
When you connect with a provider at Thriveworks, you’ll be sharing your experience with an industry-leading expert; someone with the experience and professional insight you need to move forward.
