The end goal of counselling and psychotherapy is the same — to identify goals and solutions to problems that are causing emotional stress. However, there’s a difference between each of their journeys.
Counselling typically focuses on tackling specific issues, such as stress management or addiction. It prioritises honing problem solving skills and learning methods to cope with or how to avoid such issues. This is usually shorter term than psychotherapy.
Psychotherapy focuses on a wider range of issues and works to identify an individual’s thought patterns to guide them how to better manage their thoughts and behaviour. This enables them to achieve their personal goals and improve relationships.
At Sofia Wellness Clinic, we offer both counselling and psychotherapy to cater to your unique needs.
