Can psychotherapy help with breakups?
The loss of a romantic relationship is no different than the other types of loss we may experience. Loss of a loved one to death, losing a job, relocation, and the death of a pet are also major forms of loss. Psychotherapy is an opportunity to understand the grief process and gain support to navigate those changes. READ MORE
Is talk therapy more effective than medications?
Thank you for your question. It is one that many people grapple with. However, it is always important to discuss medication changes with your primary care physician. Your decision should be discussed to explore the potential impact of making changes to the dosage, frequency, etc. In my clinical experience, clients have reported both pros and cons of medication use in addition to therapy. Many have discussed the ways in which medication makes the process of therapy somewhat easier to navigate, while others have reported times when they didn't quite feel like themselves. Medication is an individual choice that affects each person in a unique way. Please discuss the potential risks and benefits with your primary medical provider as well as with your therapist to decide what is right for you. READ MORE
