Geriatric Counselling
Counselling
Counseling generally refers to a broader range of helping professions, including career counseling, educational counseling, and marriage counseling. It may involve providing guidance, support, and advice to individuals or groups. Counseling can be short-term or long-term, depending on the specific needs of the client.
How can this help?
Both counseling and therapy can be helpful for individuals seeking to:
-
Improve mental health: Address symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions.
-
Resolve personal issues: Work through relationship problems, grief, or trauma.
-
Enhance self-awareness: Gain a better understanding of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
-
Develop coping skills: Learn healthy ways to manage stress and challenges.
Therapy
Therapy is often more focused on addressing deep-seated emotional or psychological issues. It typically involves a therapeutic relationship between a trained professional and the client, where the client can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a safe and supportive environment. Therapy can be individual, group, or family-oriented.
Importance of Mental Health
The Importance of Mental Health
Mental health is just as important as physical health. It affects how we think, feel, and act. When our mental health is in good shape, we are better equipped to handle life's challenges, build strong relationships, and achieve our goals.
