In times of stress, such as experiencing family issues, work-related challenges, or relationship problems, many people often think of seeing a psychiatrist as the first option. However, it is important to recognise that there are other professionals who specialise in providing support for emotional and mental well-being. Clinical psychologists, counselling psychologists, and therapists are all different types of professionals playing distinct roles in caring for their clients.
Psychologists utilise active listening skills and offer empathetic counselling to individuals dealing with various forms of stress, whether it be from family situations, work-related pressures, or other issues. Through meaningful conversations, psychologists aim to facilitate self-exploration and promote a better understanding of one’s environment, ultimately helping clients find practical solutions to their problems.
Each counselling session with a psychologist typically lasts around 45-60 minutes, initially every 2-4 weeks. While most people feel comfortable during these conversations, it is not uncommon for individuals to experience moments of vulnerability or emotional discomfort while expressing their feelings. Hence, it may be helpful to plan and prepare enjoyable activities for relaxation after the session.
Many individuals mistakenly believe that seeking help from a psychologist is only necessary when facing severe emotional or mental challenges. However, proactively reaching out to a psychologist when one notices early signs of stress can help to prevent more serious problems from escalating.
