What is Psychology?
Psychology from a mental health perspective focuses on understanding and treating mental health issues. It uses science to study behaviours, thoughts, and feelings, aiming to help people improve their mental well-being. Psychologists use a variety of methods to help individuals dealing with psychological challenges like mental disorders and phobias.
What is the difference between a Psychologist and a Psychiatrist?
While both psychologists and psychiatrists work in the mental health field, psychologists typically hold masters degrees in psychology and provide psychotherapy, psychological assessments, and counselling. Psychiatrists, on the other hand, can prescribe medication in addition to providing therapy. At BetterPlace you will only meet certified Clinical Psychologists.
What are the different therapies used in psychology?
Psychology includes numerous therapies, few of which include – CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) which focuses on changing negative thought patterns, DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) which includes mindfulness practices, and IPT (Interpersonal Therapy) which improves communication and relationships.
Does psychology work only for individuals?
