We help clients develop healthy coping skills, explore their feelings and emotions, and work through difficult life experiences.
What Is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy, also known as “talk therapy,” is a form of psychological treatment that uses conversation and other communication techniques to help clients work through their mental health issues. During the therapeutic process, clients will work together with a therapist to identify and address the following:
- Problematic thoughts
- Emotions
- Behaviors
- Relationships
- Stressors and triggers
The goal of psychotherapy is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients can develop new perspectives, gain insight into their issues, and learn how to make lasting lifestyle changes.
At The Willows at Red Oak Recovery®, our experienced therapists use evidence-based approaches to help clients cultivate self-awareness and improve mental well-being. We strive to create an atmosphere of trust, acceptance, and understanding so that clients feel comfortable exploring their feelings and sharing their experiences.
Benefits of Psychotherapy
The following are some of the most notable benefits of psychotherapy:
Improved Mental Wellness
Psychotherapy helps clients explore their:
- Thoughts
- Feelings
- Behaviors
Through this process, clients can gain a better understanding of themselves and how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors have been impacted by their past experiences. This newfound knowledge allows them to build healthier coping skills that they can apply to various situations in life. It also helps them develop positive relationships with themselves and others.
Increased Self-Awareness
At The Willows at Red Oak Recovery®, we utilize evidence-based psychotherapy techniques to help our clients become more self-aware. Our psychotherapists work one-on-one with each client to identify underlying issues that may be contributing to their substance use or other destructive behaviors. This increased self-awareness allows our clients to recognize when they are struggling emotionally or mentally and gives them the tools they need to effectively address those struggles in healthy ways.
Improved Emotional Regulation
For many people struggling with addiction or other mental health issues, emotional regulation can be difficult. A psychotherapy program helps clients learn how to better regulate their emotions by teaching them strategies for recognizing triggers that could lead to unhealthy behavior patterns or substance use and developing healthier coping mechanisms for dealing with these triggers when they arise. This improved emotional regulation is key to helping our clients live free from addiction and other destructive behaviors.
Psychotherapy program benefits vary from person to person, but the overall goal is always to help our clients achieve and maintain long-term mental wellness.
