Treatment With a Psychologist FAQs

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 Cumming, GA 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 Cumming 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.

What Do Psychologists Do? How Can They Help?

Our psychologists have years of graduate school under their belt, as well as supervised training and experience. These are licensed professionals who are able to help clients by providing them with mental health services, be it therapy, counseling, psychological testing, or another service.

Thriveworks psychologists can help treat:

  • Mental health issues: You’re familiar with mental health issues. Even if you haven’t had firsthand experience with a mental illness, you likely know someone else who has. We’re talking depression, anxiety, PTSD, phobias, OCD. If you do present symptoms of a mental illness, the Thriveworks Cumming psychologists can offer psychological testing, which involves assessing your symptoms and offering a diagnosis. They can then create a personalized treatment plan that is tailor-made for you. This might involve working with a therapist, starting medication, or both!
  • Other life problems: Mental illness isn’t the only thing that can have a negative impact on our mental health and emotional wellbeing. Other life problems can hurt us too, like relationship issues, work stress, a lack of self-worth, anger management issues, and so on. Again, a psychologist can look at your specific experience, help you better understand the problem at hand, and then guide you in managing said problem.

If you’re struggling mentally or emotionally, please consider meeting with a psychologist. Again, these mental health professionals are not here to judge you. They’re here to do quite the opposite. Our Thriveworks Cumming psychologists will provide you with a safe, comfortable space to talk about your feelings and work through your given challenge(s).

Lisa is a very compassionate therapist, she has given me tools to help me on my journey and understanding. The bigest thing is I trust Lisa with things I've never told anyone else.

Hannah is amazing. She was recommended to me by one of my good friends who happens to be one of her other patients, and it's been a great fit. I feel like I've made substantial progress. I started talking with Hannah after a family crisis, and after that experience, decided that speaking with her twice a month, indefinitely, was a good idea. She's helped me process some issues that have lingered over me for years. Thriveworks makes it easy to keep the consistency. I can usually find an excuse to not drive across town and sit in an office. It's much harder to find an excuse not to take two hours a month to work on my mental health over zoom. For the first time since I started counseling over a decade ago, I've worked with the same person consistently enough to almost make it through my entire back story.

Hannah is very easy to talk to and does a good job summing up what I've shared and how I'm feeling in a way that feels heard and also helps me clearly grasp how I'm doing.

★★★★★
Thriveworks makes it so easy and convenient for me to be able to participate in talk therapy. With someone who has a very complicated work schedule and a busy lifestyle I never would've started therapy if it had not been for thriveworks openness, and flexibility. Also, my counselor must have been handpicked for me by God himself. She is very knowledgeable and very understanding of my issues!
