What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy, or talk therapy, is a tool used by therapists to better your mental health. Psychotherapy helps treat mental illnesses, manage emotional issues, and resolve relationship difficulties.

The psychotherapists at Solid Foundation Psychiatry use one-on-one psychotherapy sessions to help you examine your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Psychotherapy helps you unearth the issues that trouble you and change your thinking about these issues. Through psychotherapy, you learn the tools necessary to help you manage thoughts, reactions, and behavior as you progress through life. 

Who benefits from psychotherapy?

Most people benefit from psychotherapy. It helps to investigate your thoughts and emotions to better understand why you act the way you do. 

Certain circumstances may inspire you to seek psychotherapy. These circumstances include: 

• Death of a loved one
• Failed relationships
• Abuse
• Trauma
• Medical illness

Psychotherapy is also a key part of your treatment plan for depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.

At Solid Foundation Psychiatry, you can benefit from individual and couples psychotherapy sessions. Marriage counseling can help you and your partner deal with issues causing conflict in your relationship. 

What happens during psychotherapy?

You’ll be connected to your therapist remotely via a video conference. The sessions are private and fully encrypted. At your initial appointment, the provider takes time to understand your needs and perspective. 

You’ll discuss the issues you want to address. Your therapist remains present and may ask questions to help you provide more detail about what may be contributing to your concerns and mental health struggles. They’ll offer expert support, guidance, and insight to help you understand your thoughts and behaviors. There are many approaches to psychotherapy, and your therapist uses the type that’s most appropriate for your case. 

Most people benefit from a series of appointments to help them really dig deeply into your mental health. Exactly how many sessions you require depends on your individual needs and your progress. Some patients benefit from ongoing therapy to address complex emotional and mental health issues.
