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 Odessa, TX 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 Odessa 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.

Need more help deciding?

The German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer once stated, “Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.” The field of psychology has many fascinating specialties; for example, behavior economics, forensic psychology, and child psychology. But one thing that all these various branches seek to do is expand our understanding of how our minds work so our fields of vision aren’t so limited. By gaining insights into our own thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, we can better understand humanity better in general. This is one of the great benefits of psychology.

The licensed psychologists at Thriveworks in Odessa, TX can help clients achieve mental well-being through self-inquiry, self-knowledge, and practical strategies. The team at Thriveworks is committed to giving people the psychological support that they need and deserve, no matter how mild or acute a person’s mental health issues are. Reach out today for help.

Why Is Mental Health Important?

Good mental health is the solid foundation from which every other accomplishment can happen. At best, someone in poor mental health might find that they can’t contribute their full value to the world. At worst, someone in poor mental health could damage themselves or someone else. 

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines mental health as “a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community.” The licensed psychologists at Thriveworks in Odessa, TX have the expertise required to help individuals realize those goals. 

How Do You Choose a Psychologist?

To choose the best psychologist for you, you should follow a series of steps.

  1. Make sure the psychologist is fully licensed and qualified to treat clients. All psychologists at Thriveworks in Odessa are licensed in Texas.
  2. Make sure the psychologist is affordable. Thriveworks psychologists accept most health insurance and also offer affordable self-pay rates.
  3. Make sure the psychologist has experience treating your issue. Psychologists at Thriveworks have a wide range of mental health specialties, including depression, anxiety, panic disorder, addiction, eating disorders, phobias, and more.

Once you’ve covered these basics, you can delve deeper into a psychologist’s biography and background for more information.

I have been working with Dr. Covey for almost 6 months now and she has been excellent. I feel like I am heard and understood even when I have a hard time expressing things myself and putting thoughts into words. Having someone who can actually listen and provide the resources to assist myself with past trauma and current challenges has been a life changer.

This is prior to being seen so this is strictly based on first impressions upon entering the building. The waiting area is nice but undefined as to where one should go nor any indications as to what is needed to be done. No one was there to greet us nor was there any desk or window to suggest someone would. We looked for the therapist's office but no doors had any identification to point us in the right direction. At this point we're at the mercy of the clock alerting the therapist to seek us out in the waiting area in order to be seen. Not the best first impression. I will update this review if and when we are seen.

Easy and convenient to book according to my schedule. I feel like I'm learning and making progress with Mrs. Antoine. She is extremely kind and empathetic. I would recommend a friend to Thriveworks because of my experience with her.
