Many people may experience depression, anxiety or other mental disorders or need help coping with a serious illness, losing weight or stopping smoking. Others struggle to cope with substance abuse or other issues. Whatever the issue, individual psychotherapy applies scientifically validated procedures to help people get free from the negative impact of their issues on their mental health.
Psychotherapy in Arizona works by establishing a collaborative relationship between the individual in treatment and the psychiatrist and therapist. There are many psychotherapies and these can be used depending on the nature of the problem a person has. Psychotherapy is grounded in open and supportive dialogue: It focuses on identifying and changing thought patterns that are negatively affecting an individual’s mental health. When it comes to treatment, many psychologists utilize a holistic approach — they use elements from a variety of different approaches.
