In what cases is psychotherapy effective

Psychotherapy is an effective method of treating a wide range of problems associated with mental disorders in people of different genders and ages. The key task of a psychotherapist is to effectively help the patient, which is based on three main principles: understanding the patient’s problems, developing a strategy for solving them and improving the patient’s psychological well-being by carrying out appropriate psychotherapeutic procedures.

The main problems that psychotherapy helps to solve:

Anxiety disorders and depression – a psychotherapist in Kyiv can also help people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic attacks and other emotional problems;
Psychological trauma and stress – therapy is especially effective for stress management, emotional trauma and traumatic events, including PTSD;
Addictions – used in the treatment of alcoholism, gambling addiction, substance abuse, as well as the treatment of drug addiction and other forms of addiction to psychoactive substances.

How does a consultation with a psychotherapist take place?

In Ukraine, many people do not know what a consultation is, how it takes place and what happens there. Because of this, fear often arises of the first appointment with a private therapist.

A psychotherapist’s consultation is a conversation between a doctor and a client aimed at solving his problems. Actually, a psychotherapist does not solve a problem, but helps a person independently find a way to solve it. For this, group forms of consultation or individual ones can be used. The duration of treatment depends on the specific situation and the person’s problem.

For different clients, different methods of counseling are applied. In the “MEDLUX” clinic, the first reception of a psychotherapist takes place individually and further the direction of work is determined. Sometimes related specialists may be involved, for example, a consultation with a narcologist, psychiatrist or other doctors, to better solve the problem.

The difference between a psychotherapist and a psychiatrist

A psychotherapist and a psychiatrist are two different specialists with a medical education who provide anonymous psychiatric emergency in the field of mental health. They have similar, but still different functions and approaches to treating patients.

A psychotherapist has expanded opportunities in treating patients, since he is a psychiatrist who has received additional specialization in psychotherapy. Thus, a consultation with a psychiatrist, in some cases (when it concerns psychological problems), may be less relevant than an online consultation with a psychotherapist. At the same time, both doctors can conduct drug therapy and treat complex mental disorders/diseases, such as: schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder, autism, and others.
