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 Long 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 Long 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.

When Should One Consider Seeing a Psychologist?

Whether you are dealing with the loss of a relationship or the death of a loved one, or are simply experiencing general feelings of disinterest in your usual activities, having support from a licensed professional can help.

  • Overcome relationship problems
  • Cope effectively with major life transitions
  • Overcome past traumas
  • Deal with feelings of emptiness
  • Resolve long-lasting family disputes

  • Increase confidence and self-esteem

  • Work through career uncertainties

How Can a Psychologist Help Me Heal?

Psychologists study behavior and mental processes and work with clients to help alleviate their symptoms and overcome life’s challenges. They are mental health professionals who diagnose and treat mental health conditions, often through the use of talk therapy. In this mode of treatment, clients get the opportunity to process their emotions, work through their concerns, and identify solutions to help them feel better.

Talking with a professional counselor can help you:

  • Better understand your thoughts
  • Change unwanted or unhelpful behaviors
  • Reduce your symptoms
  • Find greater happiness in relationships
  • Learn to communicate more effectively
  • Gain different perspectives on life stressors

Licensed psychologists help people from all walks of life overcome their mental, emotional, and behavioral issues. While this process can take time, clients often learn valuable lessons and coping strategies within the first few sessions that will last a lifetime.

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.
