Psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach aimed at treating mental health issues and emotional distress through communication and interaction between a trained therapist and a client. It encompasses various techniques such as talk therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. Through these methods, psychotherapy helps individuals understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, fostering personal growth and alleviating symptoms of conditions like depression, anxiety, and trauma. It promotes self-awareness, emotional regulation, and improved coping strategies.
