Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is a longer-term treatment that tends to address deeper, more long-term issues that may be rooted in the past, e.g., a trauma, or serious mistreatment where the effects of such are ongoing. Psychotherapy also focuses on a person's feelings and past experiences that can lead to personal growth. Psychotherapy attempts to gain more insight into someone's problems with greater depth and facilitates long term changes, with a reconstruction of personality or psyche. Psychotherapists also diagnose and treat mental health disorders, anxiety disorders and mood disorders.
