Psychotherapy is suitable for individuals facing deeper or complex challenges, requiring longer-term support and assistance to alleviate their situation. Due to the shortage of psychotherapists, accessing therapy can be difficult or may take a long time.
However, perhaps help is available through short therapy more swiftly? Short therapy is a solution for many people facing mental challenges — access to support is immediate, and according to research, short-term therapy is effective.
Short-term therapy is suitable for you if…
- You seek help promptly and are motivated for therapy.
- You seek help for sufficiently limited challenges.
- You are able to open up to the therapist about even difficult and emotionally charged issues.
Did you know that the Finnish therapy system relies heavily on psychotherapy? Psychotherapy is offered to help with various mental challenges, even though it is intended as a tool for clearly challenging situations. Currently, many are directed to or want to be directed immediately to psychotherapy, even though help could be obtained more quickly from readily available short-therapy. This creates an illusion of a shortage of therapists, even though it is actually about large numbers of people being directed to a certain type of service with limited availability.
Long-term psychotherapy by psychotherapist trainees starts with an initial assessment, where we organize your problem, change goals, and barriers to change together. Therapy is tailored to your specific needs, goals, and situation. Your psychotherapist’s toolbox includes various methods, which are customized to create an appropriate approach for most needs.
You meet your psychotherapist regularly, at mutually agreed-upon times. Your well-being and progress are monitored throughout the process.
Commitment to psychotherapy is crucial. The work is long-term: often psychotherapy lasts about 1-3 years.
