Psychotherapy, often called “talk therapy,” is a scientifically supported approach that helps you understand and change unhealthy emotions, thoughts, and behaviours.
While counselling typically focuses on short-term problem-solving, psychotherapy helps you explore deeper causes of distress and supports long-term positive change

Before your first appointment, you will have already filled in a short questionnaire to make sure that your therapist is the right “fit” for you. Your first session is focused on building a strong foundation – learning what you can achieve and understanding how the process works.
As the session comes to an end, your therapist will likely review what you’ve covered and offer some initial thoughts on the plan moving forward. This might involve actionable next steps, techniques and strategies you can use, or it might involve spending more time understanding your issues–it really depends.
