SHORT-TERM PSYCHOTHERAPY
When is a short-term therapy or psychological counseling helpful? This form of psychological therapy is suitable if you are looking for professional help because of a personal difficulty or if you are in a suffering life phase. The duration of the psychological treatment varies. In some situations a one-time psychological counseling is sufficient in others a short-term therapeutic treatment seems more effective to strengthen one's own well-being.
At times, certain experiences and circumstances can be so troublesome that behavior, thoughts and actions are determined by them. It is advisable to deal with the personal problem or distressing events in a resource-oriented manner in order to counteract any worsening of the situation. The aim of contemporary therapeutic methods is to make everyday life easier and more joyful again, to sharpen self-perception and the perception of others. It is worthwhile to trace the causes of personal problems and behavior patterns and to process them, if past events have a negative effect on the present being.
The focus is on a trusting working relationship between you and me, as well as the comprehensibility of the therapeutic procedure. Essential for the success of the therapy is your desire and willingness to change.
