What is Psychotherapy?

Whether one needs psychotherapy has to do with whether everything that concerns him complicates his life and his functionality. Functionality defines the ability of the individual to adapt to new situations or changes, to create satisfactory relationships of love and trust, to work productively, to enjoy his life.

Some people ask for help when their mental endurance has collapsed and they do not see a way out, when their health problems or psychosomatic symptoms ring the bell and they can not close their ears. Others feel that for some reason they repeat mistakes and are unable to break the vicious circle and thus ask for help. Others, having the need to know themselves better, are mobilized by the process of psychotherapy, without experiencing a significant reduction in their functionality.

So, there is no one who will say that you need or do not need psychotherapy, as you yourself are the only one who can judge if something is a problem for you, if you are ready to face it, if you want to change your relationship. with this. An important factor is the time, the moment when everyone will feel that the time has come to take action. And that, too, is something you judge for yourself since you are the one who needs motivation to endure the path to self-knowledge and change. Dealing with your life and yourself directly requires courage and boldness. So one needs psychotherapy when trying to change and improve one’s life, and one’s efforts have reached a dead end, which can not be overcome. Together with your therapist you will open new paths that until now may not have been at your disposal.

Psychotherapy is an exciting journey and process. Many times it works as a relief, other times it upsets, other times it hurts and makes it difficult, but above all it rewards and justifies you. Knowing oneself and taking responsibility for one’s life are the most valuable goods that life can give, it just does not provide them effortlessly and painlessly. Anyone who is seriously involved in the journey of psychotherapy knows very well that it is one of the most important in their life.
