Psychotherapy is a series of meetings that can take from a couple of sessions to long months depending on the seriousness and type of the problem. The therapy helps to recognise and pinpoint the problem and makes the patient realise that change and healing is in everybody’s hands. It assists in the solving of everyday’s problems and the development of patterns that form the basis of treatment. In the course of psychotherapy it becomes clear that not all treatment needs medication and healing can be achieved with different methods. Psychotherapists employ a range of techniques such as hypnosis and group therapy that are designed to improve the mental health of the patient.
