What can psychotherapy do for you?

Psychotherapy provides a place to safely explore whatever is troubling you. It offers a place to express your fears and anxieties and to strengthen your emotional responses to them. It can help you deal with daily problems so you can take charge of your life.

As a result of therapy, you will have the opportunity to feel less alone, less victimized, and more able to cope with life. You may even be encouraged to express yourself more creatively and confidently.

Psychotherapy encourages you to deal with daily problems in new and more functional ways. Sessions involve you and your therapist usually meeting once a week in a private office for about an hour. Typically, you sit opposite each other and begin a conversation about your life and the challenges you are experiencing.

Some people come with very specific problems or with a larger purpose of understanding themselves better, of finding their true selves, of freeing up energy for living more fully. (This work takes time, sometimes months, often longer.) Whereas others may not articulate a specific situation, but express a feeling - or lack of feeling - that is impacting their well being negatively.

The uniqueness of our service at PRS is that we are trained to choose the best, most beneficial match between you and one of our 50 professional therapists so that the experience is the best, most uplifting it can be.
