Short Term Evaluation Shorter Term vs.
Work done is based on their evaluation.
If the oil's dirty, you have it changed. If the engine's damaged but salvageable, you get an over-haul. The same can be said for the psyche. It's the mental health professional who meets with you, finds out what's prompting you to come for help and how it can best be treated. This might involve a shorter term therapeutic approach for an oil change, vs. a longer term approach for an overhaul.
