Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.
Thriveworks psychologists in Davenport, IA provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.
Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Davenport is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.
The philosopher Socrates is quoted as saying, “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” Granted, we all know a few basic things about ourselves: our likes and dislikes, our favorite movies, etc. But when was the last time you took a deep dive into your own psychology? For instance, what are your triggers for sadness or anxiety? What are your implicit expectations for an intimate partner? What are your underlying beliefs about your own abilities? Asking these questions can feel a little overwhelming if you don’t have a mental health professional there to guide you toward important insights, and lift you up when you feel discouraged. That’s where Thriveworks can help.
