A psychologist is a specialist who deals with the mental and psychological health of people. Most often, people turn to a psychologist when they want to understand themselves, understand the causes of personal problems and anxieties, when they feel emotional distress, depression and lack of motivation. It happens that a person has experienced a traumatic situation, for example, divorce, separation, moving, loss, which entails unpleasant emotional reactions that the person himself cannot cope with. They reduce quality of life, and increase the risk of developing bodily symptoms, and even developing diseases. A psychologist can also help in overcoming difficult experiences. During consultations with a psychologist (psychotherapist), a special atmosphere of acceptance and trust is created, which facilitates the processing of traumatic events in a safe and completely confidential environment. People often believe that they can overcome their difficulties themselves, however, as practice shows, this does not always work out. A person tends to resist change, and also uses mental defense mechanisms that do not allow one to look at the problem objectively; as a result, ineffective behavior is repeated, which means that the cause of dissatisfaction remains. In consultation with a psychologist, thanks to his knowledge of the patterns of how the psyche works, he will be able to help you see your situation from the outside, and therefore, more objectively, understand how your thoughts, feelings and actions create pain, anxiety and stress, and help you get out of your usual ways of reacting. Overall, working with a psychologist can greatly impact your quality of life for the better. You will begin to understand your emotions, build harmonious relationships, improve your health and relationships with others, learn to build healthy boundaries, which will affect your whole life.
