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 Stamford, CT 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 Stamford 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.
Psychologists are licensed, qualified mental health professionals who help their clients work through a range of mental health and life issues. They use their extensive experience, skills, and tools to help people live better.

Psychologists can provide value to many people for different reasons. One person might begin working with a psychologist to manage their depression or anxiety through talk therapy and/or medication, while another person might meet with a psychologist for their guidance on a relationship issue. As you can see, the issues that one presents to their psychologist can vary greatly. Here’s a more comprehensive list:
If you need help with any of the above challenges, consider working with a psychologist at Thriveworks Counseling in Stamford, CT.

Get to work with one today.
The psychologists and counselors at Thriveworks Counseling in Stamford, CT use a broad range of techniques and tools to help their clientele improve their wellbeing and reach new heights. Often, they will use therapy to understand each client’s needs, which will then inform the treatment plan they create to help the individual burst through their specific roadblock(s). This means that in order to make progress with your psychologist, you might have to open up about some difficult topics. But don’t worry, it will only benefit you in the end!
In some cases, a client can best benefit from a combination of talk therapy and medication. If this is the case, your psychologist will likely work with your primary care physician and/or a psychiatrist to prescribe and manage the individual’s medication. In some states, however, a psychologist can do so without the assistance of another healthcare provider. Either way, if you have an illness that requires or benefits from medication, your Thriveworks psychologist will help you obtain and manage your medication.
Admitting that we have a problem and asking for a little help isn’t easy. Some of us are taught to suck it up and solve our problems ourselves, while others pick up shame, stigma, and fear from society. In any case, there is nothing wrong with asking for help. In fact, it is the courageous, right thing to do—especially when it comes to your health and wellbeing.
Psychologists can help you overcome challenges and ultimately pave the path for a happier, healthier life.
