Psychotherapy
Psychotherapists work with individuals, couples, families and groups to help them overcome a range of psychological and emotional issues. With the client as an active participant, psychotherapists use personal treatment plans and a variety of non-medical-based treatments to:
- address the client’s thought processes, feelings and behaviour;
- understand inner conflicts;
- find new ways to deal with, and alleviate, distress.
Psychotherapists take a variety of approaches according to the theoretical models they adopt and the therapy they practice.
