What's the difference between a psychologist and a psychiatrist?
Think of psychologists as experts in understanding how the mind works and how it influences behavior. They specialize in counselling and therapy, and involves discussing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to better understand and address mental or emotional wellbeing.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication when needed.
Psychologists and psychiatrists often work closely to provide comprehensive care.
What's the difference between counseling and therapy?
While counseling and therapy both aim to improve mental well-being, they differ in their focus and approach.
Counseling typically tackles specific, current challenges like relationship issues or career transitions, using practical tools, solution focused approach and psychoeducation to equip individuals with coping strategies. This is often a shorter-term process focused on addressing immediate concerns.
Therapy, on the other hand is deeper and more focused on exploring and resolving complex emotional or mental health issues. Therapists use various techniques to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, helping you to gain insight into your problems and learn healthier ways of coping.
Think of it this way: counseling helps navigate a specific roadblock, while therapy equips you for the entire journey, understanding the deeper terrain and developing skills to navigate future obstacles.
How do I know if I need counseling or therapy?
There's no one-size-fits-all answer! It depends on your concerns. Talk to your psychologist to discuss your goals and explore the best option for you.
Do you provide batch therapy, past life regression therapy, chromotherapy, etc.?
No. We don't practice batch therapy, past life regression therapy, chromotherapy, etc.
At Water Psychology Studio, our psychologists prioritize and practice only scientifically proven, evidence-based therapies. These are methods widely recognized and supported by international organizations like the American Psychological Association, The Institute of Mental Health, and The British Psychological Society.
This means we focus on therapies with strong research backing and demonstrably positive outcomes in helping individuals manage various mental health concerns.
Remember, prioritizing evidence-based practices ensures you receive care informed by the latest scientific advancements and proven effectiveness for your emotional wellbeing.
