What is a psychotherapist?

0

A psychotherapist refers to a type of therapist who focuses on improving a person’s mental health (as opposed to a massage therapist or a physical therapist). Psychotherapy typically involves some form of “talk” therapy.

Psychotherapists are usually graduates, and are highly trained professionals who may or may not be medically qualified. Psychotherapists, like counsellors, usually seek to help their patients by listening, talking and trying to establish a particular kind of helping relationship. Many of the skills and theories used by psychotherapists are equally relevant to counsellors.
