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 Helotes, TX 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 Helotes 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?

Psychology focuses on the mind and its relation to all aspects of life, including behaviors, emotions, social interactions, and even your thoughts and beliefs. Clinical psychologists are licensed professionals dedicated to diagnosing and treating mental, emotional, and behavioral health issues of many types.

Clinical psychologists typically earn both a master’s degree and a doctorate degree, and go on to complete an internship or postdoctoral program. This means they are highly qualified to provide insight into many forms of mental illness.

Psychologists using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), for example, will place an emphasis on analyzing your daily thought patterns and evaluating their impact on your moods and behaviors. It’s common to reinforce negative perceptions of ourselves through our daily thoughts. You may not even realize how big of an impact your thoughts are having until you verbalize them in a clinical setting where they can be analyzed and adjusted.

Your psychologist can teach you coping mechanisms to better handle uncomfortable situations, painful emotions, and difficult symptoms. You may learn better communication skills that can help you in your career and your relationships.

If you would like to experience these benefits for yourself, licensed psychologists are standing by at Thriveworks Counseling in Helotes, TX.
