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 Sterling Heights, MI 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.

How long would I see a psychologist?

Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Sterling Heights 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.

I appreciate how quickly I was able to make my first appointment and how flexible the providers are. I started off seeing Shelby in person but eventually transitioned to virtual appointments. It was so nice to meet Shelby in person and become more comfortable with her prior to switching to virtual appointments. Shelby is fantastic, she is an attentive listener and never makes me feel like I am wasting her time. I feel very comfortable and validated here!
