Benefits of Psychological Therapy

• Improved Mental Health: Therapy provides support for various challenges you might be dealing with. The entire process helps you feel more capable of dealing with your pertaining issues.
  
• Better Coping Strategies: Psychological therapy teaches you practical tools that help you cope with various challenges and daily stressors.
  
• Enhanced Self-Awareness: Therapy helps you recognise your thought patterns and behaviours. This awareness allows you to make choices that help you grow as a person.
  
• Stronger Relationships: Therapy helps you understand your emotions and helps you express them more effectively. It improves interpersonal communication, helping you build healthier relationships.
  
• Increased Emotional Control: Psychological therapy equips you with techniques like mindfulness, which can help you manage your emotions in a healthier way and feel more in control of your reactions.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) is a structured psychological therapy designed to help you manage intense emotions. It is also effective for issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other conditions. DBT equips you with practical skills like emotional regulation that help you manage complex emotions and build healthier relationships. 

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy helps you explore unconscious thoughts and past childhood experiences to understand how they shape your present behaviours. It is especially effective in working through unresolved trauma and deep-seated patterns that might be holding you back.

Humanistic Therapy

Humanistic therapy encourages self-exploration and personal growth to help you reach your full potential. Client-centred therapy is one such psychological therapy that operates on a humanistic belief and focuses on creating a safe and supportive space where you feel valued by inculcating self-acceptance along with unconditional support. This approach helps you connect with yourself on a deeper level and grow at your own pace.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps you accept yourself by accepting your thoughts, emotions, and who you are as a person. This approach is especially helpful for managing chronic stress, anxiety, and perfectionism, allowing you to live with more flexibility and purpose.

• • Qualification and Experience: Make sure your therapist is licensed and has experience in addressing your specific concerns.
    
  • Personal Compatibility: A strong therapist-client relationship is important for a successful therapeutic outcome. You must feel comfortable with your therapist to share your deepest emotions, so ensure you can have a good relationship with them.
    
  • Logistical Factors: Consider availability, fees, and travel distance to ensure easier accessibility. Therapy should fit into your schedule and budget while also being conveniently located so that you can stay consistent without added stress.
    
  • Online vs. In-Person: Sometimes life doesn’t wait for anything, not even your mental health. In those moments, an online therapy option is always helpful. If you’re unable to make it to your therapy session in person, an online session can help you maintain treatment adherence and make sure you’re on track.

An online psychological therapy session or teletherapy offers flexibility and convenience, which makes it easier to access support from anywhere. On the other hand, in-person therapy sessions can provide a more personal experience. You can choose one depending on your preferences.

At BetterPlace, all therapy plans are personalised to meet the client’s needs. Your treatment with us may include:

• Identifying thought patterns and behaviours that impact your well-being.
• Developing healthier coping strategies for stress and emotions.
• Practising mindfulness and relaxation techniques to help with stress.
• Exploring past experiences to understand their influence on present behaviours.
• Role-playing to build confidence in communication and interpersonal skills.

“Therapists just listen and don’t give advice.”
Therapists not only listen to you, but they also offer guidance. A therapist creates a safe space where you can talk about your feelings openly, without worrying about being judged. They also teach you tools to deal with your challenges. 

“Therapy takes years to see results.”
Some people worry that therapy takes years to show results, but many people experience positive changes within a few months and so can you. Your growth depends on your personal challenges and your commitment to the process.

“Online therapy isn’t as effective as in-person therapy.”
Another common misbelief is that online therapy is not as effective as in-person sessions. However, virtual therapy offers accessibility, flexibility, and a sense of comfort, which allows you to seek support from the convenience of your own space.
