Counseling & Psychotherapy
Similarities Psychotherapy just like counseling, requires a strong working relationship between therapist and client that is developed by insurances of confidentiality, genuineness, and trustworthiness. Both counseling and psychotherapy work on identifying and working through presenting issues by working collaboratively to establish and achieve goals.
During counseling and psychotherapy, you learn about your presenting issues as it relates to your thoughts, feelings, moods, and behaviors. Both can help you learn how to take control of your life and respond to challenging situations with healthy coping skills. Consequently, this can improve the overall quality of your mental health and life.
Differences Counseling focuses on presenting issues that can be improved or resolved through short-term work which could be achieved over a number of weeks or months. Counseling focuses on issues that have come up and are affecting us in the present. Psychotherapy also focuses on issues affecting us in the present but requires long-term work which could be achieved through weekly sessions over several months or years. Psychotherapy is longer-term because it often requires working through and understanding how past experiences are contributing to the present issue.
Approaches to counseling & psychotherapy
There are many approaches to counseling and psychotherapy. The type of approach utilized depends on your preferences/situation, the presenting issues, and your therapist. At New Fronteras, we only utilize evidence based approaches such as but not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Focused-CBT (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Family Systems Therapy.
Online, in-person, “text” support?
Online Counseling & Psychotherapy With our "on the go" lifestyles and busy schedules time is valuable. We want support when and where we need it. Online counseling & psychotherapy is beneficial for individuals with limited time. Working with a therapist online allows you the flexibility you need.
In-Person Counseling & Psychotherapy In-person counseling and psychotherapy is good for individuals who have more time, availability, and flexibility.
“Text” Support Texting is a great way to get started for individuals who may prefer "text support." Texting is great for the on the go professional with a conservative budget and teenagers who prefer to communicate via text message.
