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 Vallejo, CA 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 Vallejo 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?

Mental health issues can have all sorts of consequences. They can affect your relationships, your career, your physical health, and even your ability to complete day-to-day activities.

The good news is support is available to you. Whether you suffer from severe, debilitating episodes or struggle with more chronic, mild forms of mental illness, we are here to help when you’re ready. Our licensed psychologists at Thriveworks in Vallejo, CA diagnose and treat mental health conditions for countless individuals, couples, and families — and look forward to helping you too. Reach out today to get started.

Would I Benefit From Working With a Psychologist?

A psychologist studies their clients’ cognitive, emotional, and social behaviors. They work to understand their clients’ symptoms and concerns so they can guide them through treatment and help them gain control over their mental health again.

A person may see a psychologist for many reasons, including:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Trauma or abuse
  • Loss of a loved one
  • Mood swings
  • Phobias
  • Relationship or family issues
  • Eating disorders
  • Substance abuse or addiction
  • Excessive anger

If you are suffering from a mental health issue, do not hesitate to reach out to us at Thriveworks in Vallejo, CA to book an appointment. Our licensed psychologists can provide a safe space to help you alleviate your symptoms and find more stability and clarity in your life.

What Does Psychological Treatment Typically Involve?

To start, a psychologist may employ a number of tests to determine the underlying causes and extent of your symptoms so they can make a diagnosis. These may include questionnaires, assessments, and a client’s self-reporting.

From there, a psychologist can determine the right form of treatment for your situation. Typically, that involves some form of talk therapy to help you identify the specific problems that are negatively affecting your mental health. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), for example, helps clients draw a link between their thoughts and their moods and behaviors so they can adjust them to be more helpful. Other forms of therapy include psychotherapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and exposure therapy.

Under the guidance of a clinical psychologist, clients can often overcome their symptoms and achieve a higher quality of life. If you’re ready to schedule a psychology appointment, contact us at Thriveworks in Vallejo, CA.

My entire experience so far has been great.. both my psychiatrist and therapist have been a good fit in my treatment.. I am learning new skills with each visit, and gain a little more insight as well.. the convenience of having video visits is an added plus since my anxiety keeps me from driving right now.

I was extremely impressed by Juan's ability to connect and provide valuable information during my therapy. Juan's perception of facts and information retention and his ability to understand my place during my separation has help me cope with my stress. Juan has the ability to clarify and identify overlooked areas of concern. I'm very pleased with his professionalism during my therapy sessions.

My therapist is great! She's professional, personable, and on time. She goes the extra mile to be helpful. I don't like the Zoom format; I prefer in person sessions but she does her best to make it feel like we are in the same room. Very happy.

I started with Dr. Maddy about 3 months ago and I think that I had my last appointment last Friday,1/12. I really enjoyed talking to her. She is very down to earth and, most of all, she listens. I told her some things a few months ago and she remembered when I was talking with her on Friday. Amazing. We talked about a lot of issues, among them, what would I be working on, my certain issues. I would very heartedly recommend her. I can’t say enough kind words about her.
