Treatment With a Psychologist FAQs

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 Worcester, MA 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 Worcester 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 Help? Mental Health Services at Thriveworks in Worcester

There are many mental health services provided by the professionals at Thriveworks Counseling in Worcester. As we just mentioned, our psychologists get to know their clients before they design treatment so that they can best ensure success in the individual’s journey. That said, the following mental health services are often beneficial in helping people live better:

  • Depression therapy
  • Anxiety therapy
  • Addiction counseling
  • Trauma therapy
  • Grief counseling
  • Family therapy
  • Child therapy
  • Stress management counseling

Or, another service that is not included on this list might prove beneficial. Again, your Thriveworks in Worcester psychologist will work to determine what might best benefit you, be it counseling, medication, a new self-care routine, or a combination of the three.

★★★★★
I very much appreciate the humanity aspect. The actual care for the person and not just prescribing meds and upping doses. The last couple weeks have been difficult in my home life, so we made the decision to not increase any meds until that stabilizes as to not overdo it and have unintended consequences.
