Why Psychotherapy is for You

By: Priyanka Jangla

Psychotherapy provides a window to gaze at the landscape of your psyche. A therapist helps you in understanding the shape and nature of your psyche and helps you in walking your way through your challenges.

Psychotherapy a collaborative process established through regular interaction between you and your therapist. These interactions hold Reflections of our being – be it the thoughts that zap through our mind or feelings we sense in our bodies.

Your therapist provides you the safe space to be yourself in. It is that comfortable space where you are heard no matter what. You are understood without any judgements. You are held no matter what you feel or think. It is a space that respects your boundaries and appreciates you for who you are.

This is also the very space where you learn skills, coping strategies and practises that contribute to your well-being. These practices could range from learning to breathe peacefully when panic attacks take you by the storm or effective scheduling of things that bring you your version of wellness.

An extensive body of scientific research has proved that psychotherapy is helpful in the overall wellbeing for persons diagnosed with psychological illnesses or facing life stressors.

For example, individuals who experienced any form of psychotherapy were found to have reduced symptoms of depression as compared to those who had not undergone psychotherapy.

In a nutshell, psychotherapy is a jewel that uses a variety of scientifically proven methods to help a person change their behavior, increase happiness and overcome challenges.
