About Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy, is a collaborative treatment between a patient and a licensed psychologist focused on understanding and changing problematic thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It provides a safe, confidential space to explore life challenges, mental health conditions, and personal growth. Psychologists utilize evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or psychodynamic therapy, tailored to the individual's needs. This non-invasive procedure aims to improve mental well-being, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and enhance overall quality of life. It is a foundational treatment for a wide range of psychological issues, promoting long-term emotional resilience and self-awareness.

PATIENT REVIEW

Navya Reddy, a 28-year-old software engineer...

Navya Reddy, a 28-year-old software engineer who recently moved from Hyderabad to San Francisco for work, began experiencing intense anxiety, panic attacks, and persistent homesickness six months after her move. She felt isolated, struggled to sleep, and found herself constantly worrying about her performance at her new job. Her primary care physician, noting no physical causes, recommended she see a psychologist for psychotherapy to address potential adjustment disorder with anxiety. Navya was initially hesitant, viewing therapy as a sign of weakness. Her treatment began with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) focused on identifying and restructuring her catastrophic thoughts about failure and building social connections. Over 12 weeks, she learned grounding techniques for panic attacks and gradually challenged herself to attend social events. Post-treatment, Navya's panic attacks ceased, her sleep improved, and she joined a local cultural club. Emotionally, she journeyed from feeling ashamed and isolated to empowered and resilient, gaining tools to manage future stress and building a new definition of home.
