Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions?

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy, in a broad sense, is the process of influencing thoughts, emotions, and behaviors through communication and relationship methods to change and improve them.
It is a way to enhance the client’s psychological well-being and help them cope more effectively with the challenges they face.

Who is a Psychologist?

Psychology, in its simplest definition, is the scientific study of how human cognitive processes, behaviours, and emotions arise, how they develop and become established, and how they can be changed and predicted.

A psychologist is a professional who studies, assesses, and provides therapy and counselling within the framework of this science.

Does therapy provide quick results?

Therapy is a process rather than an instant solution. While some people may experience early relief through understanding their difficulties or learning initial coping strategies, meaningful and lasting change typically develops over time. Progress depends on factors such as the nature of the concerns, individual circumstances, and engagement with the therapeutic process.
