About: psychotherapist
A psychotherapist uses talk therapy to help with anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship and family issues, grief, low self-esteem or simply feeling overwhelmed. Therapists work in different approaches, such as CBT, gestalt, systemic or psychodynamic, with individuals, couples or families, in person or online. For expats, therapy in your own language can matter a lot. Psychotherapy doesn't replace a psychiatrist when medication or emergency care is needed.
Frequently asked questions
What happens in the first session?
You usually talk about what's bothering you and what you'd like to change, and the therapist explains how they work. It's also a chance to see whether you feel comfortable with them.
Is online therapy as good as in person?
Many people find online therapy works well and is practical, especially if you want a therapist in your own language. Others prefer face-to-face, so try what suits you.
How long does therapy last?
It depends a lot on the issue, approach and your goals, from a few months to longer. Ask the therapist to set goals together and review progress from time to time.
Is it confidential?
Therapists are professionally bound to confidentiality, with legal exceptions when someone's life is in serious danger. Feel free to ask how they handle it at the start.
What if I need help right now?
If you're in danger or thinking of harming yourself, call emergency services on 124 or go to the nearest emergency department. Therapy is for ongoing work, not acute crises.
