Therapy is a way to solve behavioural, emotional and relationship problems. Therapy helps children, adolescents, couples and families to live happier and healthier lives. Therapy sessions refer to structured meetings between a licensed therapist and a patient with the aim of improving certain aspects of their life. The therapist can deal with a wide range of issues, from everyday problems to those requiring more specialised treatment. Going to therapy does not at all mean that a person is crazy or has lost their mind. It means that they are reasonable enough to understand that they can start a new life and deal with stress. There are several types of therapy, including cognitive behavioural therapy, couple and family therapy and expressive therapy.
