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 Milford, CT 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 Milford 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?

Do you take a few minutes out of each day or even every week to do a quick check-in? In other words, do you dedicate a small amount of time to asking yourself, “How am I? How do I feel with the current state of my life?” There are many elements that work together to determine your current state of health, happiness, and satisfaction. If we were to categorize these elements, our list would look like this:

  • Work/career
  • Finances
  • Health
  • Physical environment
  • Personal growth and success
  • Romance
  • Friends and family
  • Fun and recreation

Now, if you had to rate each important area of your life (listed above), how would you rate them? The truth is that most areas probably would not get a score of a perfect 10. But that’s okay! What’s important is that you are checking in with yourself and determining which areas of your life could benefit from some changes. And guess what? A psychologist can help you determine what changes are needed and how you can make those important changes.

If you are in New Haven or the surrounding area, consider working with a psychologist at Thriveworks in Milford, CT. They can help you evaluate and improve every important area of your life (see list above). Their goal is to guide you through the problems that are proving harmful to your mental and emotional wellbeing. And in turn, help you live a happier, healthier life. If this sounds like something you could benefit from or find value in, reach out to Thriveworks in Milford today. Call (203) 951-3871 to schedule your first appointment.

Gina is an incredibly skilled and talented clinician. She has the unique gift of making clients immediately feel safe and understood even upon first meeting. Her passion for the work is palpable. Her knowledge is vast and her approach is sensitive, gentle, supportive and compassionate, yet direct. Gina helped me navigate a tremendously challenging time in my life and afforded me the confidence to pursue personal goals that had initially felt unattainable. She taught me tangible skills to navigate anxiety and feelings of overwhelm during our work together and our sessions were always insightful and productive. Gina will lead you on a path to self discovery without all of the therapy lingo and jargon and will always help you to feel as though you’re the expert on your own life- because you are. I couldn’t recommend Gina more. A true diamond in the rough!
