Some people feel intimidated when they hear the word “psychologist.” This intimidation can cause the individual to forego mental health treatment, even when it would make a huge difference in their life. For example, consider Ashley’s situation: She’s been experiencing symptoms of depression, and she’s well aware of it. Ever since her and her boyfriend broke up, she’s felt withdrawn and uninterested in her normal routine. She doesn’t want to go to work and she even avoids her friends on a regular basis. She knows that she needs some professional help, but she’s too scared to reach out for help.
The psychologists at Thriveworks Virginia Beach, VA (Great Neck) provide their clients with a safe, comfortable space to work through their problems. They could help Ashley analyze her feelings, manage her symptoms, and work her way out of her depression, which stems from her breakup. This is but one mere example of how they can help someone with a mental illness. They can help people with anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and other mental health conditions, too. But they are not limited to helping people with mental illnesses either. The psychologists at Thriveworks Virginia Beach can help people with other life challenges, too! Whatever it is, they’ll use their knowledge and expertise to assist you.

How Can a Psychologist Help Me? What Services Can They Provide?
As we started to explain above, psychologists can potentially help you in many different areas of your life! They can help you to manage a mental illness (like in Ashley’s case); they can help you work through conflicts in your relationship; they can help you better manage stress; they can help you process difficult emotions like grief and anger; and so on. Let’s take a closer look:
- Mental illness: In addition to depression, psychologists can help their clients manage symptoms of anxiety, PTSD, and others. If these illnesses go unaddressed, we can suffer more and more. Therefore, it’s important that you talk to a professional about your symptoms as soon as possible.
- Relationship trouble: We’re bound to have arguments and disagreements with our significant other, right? Right. But that’s not to say that we shouldn’t do what we can to work through these conflicts, improve means of communication, and so on. Sometimes, we need a little professional help to do so properly and maintain a happy, healthy relationship. That’s where a psychologist comes in.
- Stress management: The psychologists at Thriveworks Virginia Beach can help you improve your stress management approach, too. You might feel overwhelmed by stress at your job, in your relationships, and other important areas of life. In any instance, it’s important that you can properly manage this stress so that it doesn’t negatively impact you further.
- Regulation of emotions: Our psychologists can also help you regulate your emotions, or better understand them and process them. We move through a variety of emotions on a daily basis. We might feel happy and content one moment but in the next we might feel upset and unsettled. Learning to regulate these emotions and respond well to them is crucial to our wellbeing. A psychologist at Thriveworks Virginia Beach (Great Neck) can help you with this.
