Psychotherapy can help with a number of life's stresses and conflicts that can affect anyone.

For example, it may help you:.

• Resolve conflicts with your partner or someone else in your life
• Relieve anxiety or stress due to work or other situations
• Cope with major life changes, such as divorce, the death of a loved one or the loss of a job
• Learn to manage unhealthy reactions, such as road rage or passive-aggressive behavior
• Come to terms with an ongoing or serious physical health problem, such as diabetes, cancer or long-term (chronic) pain

• Cope with sexual problems, whether they're due to a physical or psychological cause
• Sleep better, if you have trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep (insomnia)

The number of psychotherapy sessions you need — as well as how frequently you need to see your therapist — depends on such factors as:

• Your particular mental illness or situation
• Severity of your symptoms
• How long you've had symptoms or have been dealing with your situation
• How quickly you make progress
• How much stress you're experiencing?
• How much your mental health concerns interfere with day-to-day life
• How much support you receive from family members and others?
• Cost and insurance limitations

Trust is a basic component to psychotherapy, and all of our client information is confidential.

Take steps to get the most out of your therapy and help make it a success.

• Make sure you feel comfortable with your therapist.
• Approach therapy as a partnership. Therapy is most effective when you're an active participant and share in decision-making. Make sure you and your therapist agree about the major issues and how to tackle them. Together, you can set goals and measure progress over time.
• Be open and honest.
• Stick to your treatment plan. If you feel down or lack motivation, it may be tempting to skip psychotherapy sessions. Doing so can disrupt your progress. Try to attend all sessions and to give some thought to what you want to discuss.
• Don't expect instant results.
• Do your homework between sessions. If your therapist asks you to document your thoughts in a journal or do other activities outside of your therapy sessions, follow through.
• If psychotherapy isn't helping, talk to your therapist about it.
