How does therapy actually work, how do you find a good one, and what’s the difference between counseling/therapy/psychiatrists/psychologists/etc.?
In: Other
Simple explanation:
Therapy tries to teach you how to better process, cope with, or otherwise address whatever the issue is.
When repeated, it can also make these better coping mechanisms automatic.
A psychiatrist is a physician and can therefore prescribe medications, order labs and imaging tests, etc. A psychologist cannot.
