Psychotherapy is a form of mental
health treatment where a trained therapist helps individuals explore and
understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It aims to alleviate
distress, improve well-being, and promote personal growth through various
therapeutic approaches. Psychotherapy involves a collaborative process between
the therapist and the individual seeking help. It can address a range of
issues, including emotional challenges, relationship difficulties, and coping
with life changes. The specific approach may vary, such as cognitive-behavioral
therapy, psycho-dynamic therapy, or humanistic therapy, tailored to the
individual's needs and goals. The goal is often to enhance self-awareness,
build coping skills, and facilitate positive changes in thoughts and behaviors.
