3 Types Of Psychotherapy

• Psychotherapy is basically just an interpersonal
  relationship between the therapist and the person
  but in a more complex point, it is described as
  something that addresses mental health issues
  through conversing with a psychologist in order
  to learn more about your behavior, feelings,
  thoughts and overall mental condition. It is
  helpful in some people to properly respond to
  difficult situations and have control over their
  life and is applicable to all, not only to those
  with clinically diagnosed conditions.
• There are a lot of particular kinds of
  psychotherapy characterized by its own approach
  that depends on each patients circumstance.
  Psychotherapy is also commonly referred to as
  therapy, counselling or talk therapy.
• Most of the time, psychotherapy utilizes verbal
  conversation in order to diagnose and solve
  issues like communication, relationship and
  behavior change.

Cognitive Therapy helps a person solve
problems through identifying dysfunctional
emotions and mindset. Compared to behavior
therapy, this concentrates on the persons
thoughts and how those affect the emotions. This
is effective in altering negative thoughts that
lead the person to act unproductively or feel bad
in general. The idea is, if you could think
differently you will feel better and act more
positively. Behavior Therapy mainly used to
cure usual mental concerns like anxiety,
depression or paranoia. This approach is largely
based on the philosophical theory of behaviorism
the belief that human behavior is directly
dependent on psychological issues. Behavior
therapy is applied to alter a persons responses
and overall behavior for the better. It seeks to
identify what we do that might cause the
inappropriate behavior and how all of it affects
us.

• Psychoanalysis or Psychodynamic Therapy this
  is where therapists work with the person to probe
  his mind and understand its psychological
  functioning and address any internal conflict.
  Psychoanalysis aims to explore the subconscious
  mind to gain more insight into the persons
  behavior and needs, thus enabling more control
  over how he handles and copes conflicts. It helps
  the person improve through learning what is
  happening inside him and how he interacts with
  the therapist himself.
• Critics of psychotherapy as a cure are asserting
  that it is not the counselling sessions that help
  a person but the simple passing of time, ergo it
  is a clever ripoff. In addition, they believe
  that psychotherapy is turning out to replace the
  normal interaction that a person should have
  among family and friends.
