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 Huntington Beach, CA 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 Huntington Beach 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?

Dani knows that something hasn’t felt right for some time. Though she can’t put her finger on what the problem is, it feels like she’s been unable to relax. Whether she’s spending time in her garden, eating lunch at work, or going on a date with her boyfriend, it feels like anxiety is slowly creeping its way into Dani’s life, leaving her with no real way to stop it. Though she’s tried talking herself out of the anxious thought loops that start to form, it feels like she’s becoming less and less sure of herself every day. 

But instead of continuing to pretend like there’s nothing bothering her, Dani is ready to start addressing the anxiety that’s rooted itself into her daily life. To tackle her problems, Dani is looking to talk with a psychologist, a licensed mental health professional who she knows will understand and help her manage the persistent, troubling thoughts she deals with regularly.

Like Dani, you might also be looking to connect with a psychologist for their assistance with your mental health needs. At Thriveworks in Huntington Beach, CA, we have a team of highly trained and experienced psychologists who are ready to work with you. Find out more about our psychologists, and talk to a scheduling specialist about booking a session by calling our office today. 

How Can a Psychologist Help Me? 

Psychologists are licensed to diagnose and treat many different types of mental health conditions. But beyond that, they’re incredible empaths who use their listening skills to evaluate your needs and address them effectively in therapy or counseling. From anxiety about work to relationship issues between partners, psychologists can effectively address multiple scenarios and perspectives. While treatment methods may vary, psychologists can help you cope with: 

  • Depression 
  • Difficulty processing a divorce or breakup 
  • Self-esteem issues
  • Relationship problems
  • Child or teen behavioral issues 
  • The loss of a friend or family member
  • Financial or work-related stress 
  • Different forms of anxiety

Though your situation may vary, trust that your voice and perspective will be heard when you talk to one of our psychologists at Thriveworks in Huntington Beach, CA. In fact, talking candidly with your provider helps you to alleviate the weight of what you’re experiencing, while your Thriveworks psychologist gains a better understanding of your unique needs and situation. 

Some of the many benefits of teaming up with a psychologist might include improving your: 

  • Family relationships
  • Anxiety levels 
  • Communication skills 
  • Ability to set and hold healthy boundaries in different scenarios
  • Relationship or marital problems
  • Emotional regulation (in anger management or grief counseling) 

Should I Talk with a Psychologist Virtually?  

Many of our psychologists are available virtually through our online therapy and counseling services. Connect with your psychologist from home, the office, or while traveling to make the most out of your sessions, regardless of your schedule. With virtual therapy and counseling from Thriveworks, it’s easier than ever to put your mental health needs first.

Whether you’re attending solo or group therapy, online therapy is a convenient and secure way to get the same quality mental health care as you would from an in-person session. Online counseling might be appealing if you: 

  • Travel or work often
  • Have mobility or chronic health concerns that limit mobility
  • Are anxious about speaking with a psychologist in person
  • Would like to avoid commuting to a brick-and-mortar office
  • Frequently take care of elderly family members or watch after kids 

We’ve made talking with one of our psychologists even easier with online counseling. Now, you can attend virtual sessions anywhere with reliable internet and somewhere private to talk. 

Connecting virtually with one of our psychologists is safe, as well. We follow strict HIPAA guidelines to make sure that your client information is protected and your session is secure.

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.
