“ The purpose of psychotherapy is to set people free”.
~ Rollo May

Psychotherapy is also called “talk therapy”. It is a process whereby psychological problems are treated through communication and relationship factors between a client and their psychologist. Psychotherapy is a collaborative treatment based on this relationship. Grounded in dialogue, it provides a supportive environment that allows you to talk openly with someone who’s objective, neutral and nonjudgmental.

You and I will work together to identify and change the thought and behavior patterns that are keeping you from feeling your best. During psychotherapy, you learn about your difficulty, your moods, feelings, thoughts and behaviors. Psychotherapy helps you learn how to take control of your life and respond to challenging situations with healthy coping skills.

Psychotherapy is not just for people who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. Psychotherapy can help with a number of life’s stresses and conflicts that can affect anyone.

For example, it may help you:

• Resolve conflictswith your partner or someone else in your life
