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 Newark, NJ 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 Newark 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.

How Can a Psychologist Make a Difference in My Life?

  • Open up about and resolve conflicts with your spouse or partner
  • Build stronger relationships with your family members
  • Better manage both personal and professional stressors
  • Manage and talk about difficult emotions like anger or grief

  • Work through addiction and maintain sobriety
  • Achieve more, leading to greater happiness and/or success

The psychologists here at Thriveworks can incorporate many different approaches to counseling into treatment. These will all depend on what your specific needs or goals are for your time in counseling.

What Does Working with a Psychologist Look Like?

Your Thriveworks psychologist will create a personalized treatment plan, designed to meet your needs. However, you can expect them to utilize principles of psychology and specific modalities that will help you resolve your personal challenges.

Some of the most commonly used approaches include:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) addresses negative thought patterns.
  • Mindfulness-based therapy promotes present-moment awareness and stress reduction.
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) assists in managing emotions and interpersonal relationships.
  • Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) develops psychological flexibility and values-based living.
  • Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) focuses on goal-oriented problem-solving and resilience-building.

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.
