Who Can a Therapist or Psychiatrist Help?
Adversity in life is normal. Social media profiles usually only display the good in life, but everybody has hardship. Can you relate to any of these situations?
- Focusing and sleeping have become harder after a loved one died. Grief feels overwhelming and makes it harder to accomplish everyday tasks.
- After moving across states, a once free-spirited child is having a hard time adjusting, making new friends, and paying attention in school.
- Life partners who have been together for years are now considering marriage, but they want to meet with a professional as they decide.
- A job is unsatisfying, but is a career change worth the risk?
- What began as a stress-relieving activity has turned into a hidden addiction.
- After infidelity, a couple who has been married for many years is now considering whether to continue the marriage.
This list may or may not include the difficulties you are facing. Every person has individualized challenges and life goals. While each person is unique, no one has to tackle life’s challenges alone. Many people want to change their life for the better and need a little help along the way. Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Georgetown providers work with people who, like you, want to overcome life’s difficulties and live a more fulfilled life.

What If A Person I Love Is Facing Mental Health Difficulties?
Is someone you love struggling? Maybe you want to offer them support, but how? Sometimes, as people help, they lose a sense of themselves or shoulder too much of the burden. Sometimes, people want to help their loved one but their efforts make the situation worse. If you have found yourself as a support for someone in difficult circumstances, maybe you have asked yourself these questions. What ways can I help without hurting? What can I do to protect myself in this situation? When should I step in and when should I say no?
If a child, spouse, friend, or family member is going through a divorce, has an addiction, or wrestles with a mental health problem, seeking out counseling or coaching may be a good choice for you.
Occasionally, the loved one may attend the sessions with you in couples therapy or may seek counseling alone. However, even if your loved one does not want to come with you or ask for help, know that it is always okay for you to ask for help. Our counselors and coaches can see you with or without your loved one.
