Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about our clinical psychology services.
Clinical psychologists are mental health professionals who conduct thorough assessments and interventions to promote emotional and psychological well-being. They evaluate clients’ mental state, personality, and functioning to determine the best course of treatment.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who diagnose and treat mental health issues using medication. Clinical psychologists, on the other hand, focus on therapeutic interventions to help clients cope with mental health challenges.
Counseling typically addresses immediate issues and is short-term, whereas psychotherapy explores deeper, long-standing patterns and behaviors that contribute to current problems. Psychotherapy aims to bring about lasting changes in one’s perspective and overall well-being.
