Can you be your own Therapist?

Im currently a major in psychology hoping to eventually become a Psychologist. I have Body Dysmorphia and was wondering if I could put myself through CBT without seeing someone. I live in the US and mental health is under healthcare, but me being a college student, and basically broke, therefore, I have no healthcare and just pray that I don't need to be hospitalized for whatever reasons because I'd be in debt for the rest ...

How to Get My Wife Into Therapy?

My wife of 10 years and I just separated. We've been having problems on and off for most of that time but it became worse over the last few years. She ended up dealing with a very stressful situation shortly before we were married and became emotionally withdrawn and a bit depressed at that time. She never really came out of it and bounced between being great and loving on occasion but mostly just withdrawn ...

Starting psychotherapy next week..what should I expect?

Hi everyone. I am seeking therapy through my low cost community mental center. I had my intake about 2 months ago. Then an appointment with the psychiatrist who suggested medication but I refused because of my severe allergies to everything. When I did the intake I did not tell the complete truth about 1 thing because I was nervous and didn't feel comfortable but I know it needs to come out in order to really ...

Physical Therapy

Physical therapy, also known as physiotherapy, provides treatment to individuals to establish, maintain and restore function and mobility.

Physical therapy does improve the quality of life by decreasing pain, spasm, and breaking scars and adhesions. It addresses the physical, psychological, emotional, and social well being.

These therapists usually take the full ...

Don't Want to Talk About It.

For the past 3 months I’ve been doing a DBT group as well as seeing a new therapist. The DBT group has been helpful and I’ve been working on some ADD testing with my therapist. On one hand I feel as though I’m putting forth a sincere effort in my treatment, on the other hand I feel as though I am holding back. I’m still not 100% comfortable sharing all my thoughts and feelings with ...

Feeling comfortable with a therapist

I've been to many psychotherapists some I've seen for several months and others for only one visit. Yet there hasn't been one that I've truly felt comfortable with. Is it me or are there just no good therapists in my area? :?

Awkward therapy sessions

I would like to ask people in here if they know what it means when during the whole session, the pacient tries to talk about personal issues. The therapist replies and talks a lot during the whole session, yet he diverts the subject and in the end the person feels as if the therapist didn't say anything at all. He "talks without saying anything" so to say. I've had this experience and I know someone ...
