Description

Psychological counseling involves working with a psychologist or counselor to improve mental well-being by developing skills to manage life challenges, emotional distress, and psychological disorders. This collaborative process builds a trusting relationship where clients can freely discuss their thoughts and feelings to gain self-awareness, learn coping strategies, and resolve issues related to stress, relationships, and career. Counselors employ various culturally-sensitive methods, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and social skills training, in settings like hospitals, private practices, or academic institutions.
