Starting Treatment With a Psychologist

What are psychologists?

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.

How do psychologists work?

Thriveworks psychologists in Nottingham, MD provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.

Can I see a psychologist in person or online?

How long would I see a psychologist?

Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Nottingham is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.

What Can I Expect from Working with a Psychologist?  

When you begin working with a psychologist, they’ll sit down with you and assess what your current situation is. They’ll talk to you about your wants, needs, and goals in therapy. With this new information, they’ll create a treatment plan that is unique and catered to you.

Your treatment plan will involve making meaningful changes in your mental health and helping you learn new tools and skills to move forward. Some of the things you can work on with a psychologist include:

  1. Better communication skills
  2. Problem-solving techniques
  3. Coping mechanisms
  4. How to identify and recognize stressors
  5. Management techniques

And more! To achieve these goals, your psychologist will use a variety of different methods including traditional talk therapy, art therapy, narrative therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy, amongst others.

I tried to call billing; I missed an evening telehealth appointment because of a widespread power outage from the massive storms of 1/9/2024. Offshore personnel had no idea what I was talking about; they said they were in the Phillippines, and in addition the language barrier was quite severe. Health professionals here are wonderful to work with; however, technical or financial issues are difficult to straighten out. I gave up and will just deal with the treating persons here.
