What is psychotherapy?
In general, psychotherapy is a method of treatment advising on planned and systematic measured actions to improve emotional functioning and improve relations with other people. Psychotherapy helps to understand feelings and emotions, helps to change own attitudes, motivations and mindset towards others in the direction of more confidence, more calmness and more satisfaction.
Individual psychotherapy is a treatment method not only for different psychiatric ailments resulting from experiencing depression and anxiety disorders.
Psychotherapy is an important alternative for people who experience frustrations stemming from their own emotional limitations, experiencing loss of bonds, struggling with work or relationship problems.
Neurobiological science brings evidence about impact of trauma, such as experiencing violence, neglect and negligence on people’s emotions and functioning. Psychotherapy is proven effective method of healing the effects of trauma.
Individual psychotherapy can also be an indispensable developmental impulse, where a person breaks free from the influence of acquired reaction patterns from the past. Gradually it transforms the habitual feeling of anxiety, helplessness, anger and guilt to calmness, self-care and care for others, which in turn contributes to gaining control and energy in realisation of own life’s desires
