Benefits of Therapy. Psychotherapy is a process in which Therapist and Patient discuss a myriad of issues, events, experiences and memories for the purpose of creating positive change so Patient can experience his/her life more fully. It provides an opportunity to better, and more deeply understand oneself, as well as, any problems or difficulties Patient may be experiencing. Psychotherapy is a joint effort between Patient and Therapist. Progress and success may vary depending upon the particular problems or issues being addressed, as well as many other factors. Participating in therapy may result in a number of benefits to Patient, including, but not limited to, reduced stress and anxiety, a decrease in negative thoughts and self-sabotaging behaviors, improved interpersonal relationships, increased comfort in social, work, and family settings, increased capacity for intimacy, and increased self-confidence. Such benefits may also require substantial effort on the part of Patient, including an active participation in the therapeutic process, honesty, and a willingness to change feelings, thoughts and behaviors. There is no guarantee that therapy will yield any or all of the benefits listed above. Participating in therapy may also involve some discomfort, including remembering and discussing unpleasant events, feelings and experiences. The process may evoke strong feelings of sadness, anger, fear, etc. There may be times in which Therapist will challenge Patient’s perceptions and assumptions, and offer different perspectives. The issues presented by Patient may result in unintended outcomes, including changes in personal relationships. Patient should be aware that any decision on the status of his/her personal relationships is the responsibility of Patient. During the therapeutic process, many patients find that they feel worse before they feel better. This is generally a normal course of events. Personal growth and change may be easy and swift at times, but may also be slow and frustrating. Patient should address any concerns he/she has regarding his/her progress in therapy with Therapist. Professional Consultation Professional consultation is an important component of a healthy psychotherapy practice. As such, Therapist regularly participates in clinical, ethical, and legal consultation with appropriate professionals. During such consultations, Therapist will not reveal any personally identifying information regarding Patient.
Benefits of Therapy. Therapy can help a person to gain new understanding about his or her problems and learn new ways of coping with and solving problems, such as anxiety, anger, depression, parenting or relationship concerns. Therapy can help a person to develop new skills and to change behaviour patterns. Therapy can contribute to an improved ability to cope with stress and difficult situations and can increase understanding of self and others. Risks of Therapy I acknowledge that, Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxx has advised me that while there are potential benefits to therapy, there is no guarantee of success and that there are potential risks. I have been advised that during counselling emotions and memories may be stimulated which can evoke strong feelings and that changes in awareness may alter my self-perceptions and ways of relating to others. I have been advised that the process of personal change can be varied and individual. I understand that by using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing some clients may experience reactions during a treatment session that neither the psychologist nor the client may anticipate, including emotional or physical sensations. I also understand that after sessions, the processing continues and other dreams, memories and feelings may emerge. I further understand that distressing and unresolved memories may emerge. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I, , understand that it is important that I mention promptly any concerns or questions to Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxx that I may have at any time during the process of therapy.
Benefits of Therapy. Therapy can have benefits and risks. It is a process in which we will discuss issues, events, experiences and memories for the purpose of creating positive change so that you can experience your life more fully. Participating in therapy may result in a number of benefits to you. One major benefit of counseling may be a resolution of the concerns which you initially brought to therapy. Other possible benefits often include a better ability to cope with interpersonal relationships or other life stressors, decreased negative thoughts and self-sabotaging behaviors, a greater understanding of personal goals, increased personal insight and growth, and increased self-confidence. Such benefits may also require substantial effort on your part, including an active participation in the therapeutic process, honesty, and a willingness to change feelings, thoughts and behaviors. There is no guarantee that therapy, by itself, will yield any or all of the benefits listed above. Participating in therapy may also involve some discomfort, including remembering and discussing unpleasant events, feelings and experiences. The process may evoke strong feelings of sadness, anger, fear, anxiety, etc. There may be times in which I will challenge your perceptions and assumptions, and offer different perspectives. The issues presented by you may result in unintended outcomes, including changes in personal relationships. Sometimes a decision that is positive for one family member is viewed quite differently by another. You should be aware that any decision on the status of your personal relationships is your sole responsibility. During the therapeutic process, many people find that they feel worse before they feel better. This is generally a normal course of events. Personal growth and change may be easy and swift at times, but may also be slow and frustrating. You should discuss with me any concerns you have regarding your progress in therapy.
Benefits of Therapy. There are many benefits to therapy. Therapy can help you develop coping skills, make behavioral changes, reduce stress symptoms, improve the quality of your life, learn to live in the present and many other advantages. Therapy is an intensely personal process which can, at times, bring unpleasant memories or emotions to the surface. There are no guarantees how therapy will work for you and progress may happen slowly. Therapy requires a very active effort on your part. In order to be most successful, you will have to work on things discussed outside of sessions.

Benefits of Therapy. Therapy involves both benefits and risks. Risks include the possibility of experiencing uncomfortable levels of feelings like sadness, guilt, anxiety, anger, loneliness and helplessness. Therapy often requires recalling experiences, some of which may be unpleasant. Therapy may involve making changes that can feel uncomfortable to you and those close to you. Should you notice any negative effects, please tell your counselor or Xxxxx Xxxxx immediately. We will make every effort to remedy the situation, work with you to make it more tolerable, or provide you with names of therapists or other resources should you prefer a referral. Initially, as a result of the therapeutic process and exploration, it may feel as though “things are getting worse instead of better”. Keep in mind that even though this may be uncomfortable, these feelings are usually temporary and reflect a sign of progress. Psychotherapy has been shown to have benefits for those who undertake it. It often leads to reduction of feelings of distress, and to better relationships and resolution of specific problems. The objective is to find more peace, joy, and healthier relationships. If for any reason your therapist leaves this office (due to a move, accepting a position elsewhere, etc.) we will assign another therapist qualified to meet your counseling needs or provide a referral to someone who can.
