But in some situations, group sessions are recommended, for example, with psychotherapeutic assistance to the family.

In addition to working with the child, it is necessary to consult with parents who should talk to a psychotherapist, attend group classes for parents, psychotherapeutic assistance may be required in case of loss of a loved one, or any other actions that will resolve a stressful situation that affects the child. .

Recently, more and more people need psychological and psychotherapeutic help. This trend can be explained in different ways, but the fact remains that the demand for psychotherapists is growing every day. If you have psychological difficulties that you cannot resolve on your own, then the best solution would be to go to a modern psychotherapy center. There are a lot of such institutions in Moscow and other large cities of our country, but in the provinces it will not be easy to find a good psychotherapist. Previously, residents of the outback had to go to the district or regional center for this, but now you can get psychotherapeutic help online. This has become possible due to the emergence of a new type of medical institutions, where advanced medical and digital technologies are being actively introduced.

The advantage of a modern psychotherapy center

It just so happened in our country that people try to visit doctors less often, and they are afraid to even think about a visit to a psychiatrist or psychotherapist. Panic fear of specialists, whose name begins with the prefix psycho-, is due to the fact that for a long time psychiatric hospitals served as a tool to combat dissidents. In such institutions, people were not provided with specialized medical care, they were simply isolated from society behind thick walls and bars.

But today's psychotherapy centers are nothing like the psychiatric hospitals of the past. A friendly atmosphere is created here, allowing any person to find a solution to their problem. Turning here, you are guaranteed to receive:

  1. Qualified psychotherapeutic help. To become a psychotherapist, a doctor must not only undergo appropriate training, but also regularly confirm his qualifications. Constant self-development makes it possible to use the latest methods and experience of the world's leading psychotherapists in the work.
  2. Individual approach and complete confidentiality. Often people are embarrassed to seek help from a psychotherapist, fearing that they will not be understood or judged. But the doctor will treat your problem with understanding, listen carefully. The scheme of psychotherapy proposed by him will be drawn up taking into account the characteristics of your character, psychotype and the current situation.
  3. Comfort and friendly service. Each of the modern psychotherapeutic centers is more like a sanatorium than a hospital. A cozy, almost homely atmosphere is set up here. This helps to create a positive attitude in patients. In a comfortable environment, it is easier for people to open up and make contact with a psychotherapist.

Already from the name it is clear that the main activity of such centers is the provision of psychotherapeutic assistance to the population. But some of them employ doctors of related specialties, for example, neurologists, endocrinologists, nutritionists, etc. This approach allows for complex treatment, because very often quite real physical diseases are caused not by viruses or bacteria, but by the psychological state of a person.

The most popular centers of Moscow

Only a few cities in our country can compete with Moscow in terms of the number of psychotherapeutic centers. For residents of the capital, having a personal psychotherapist is as natural as having their own hairdresser, tailor or dentist. But some institutions are more popular, and among them are the following:

  • Center for Psychotherapy Professor Malygin. Here, experienced psychotherapists conduct appointments; in their work they use proprietary methods that allow them to effectively deal with almost all types of emotional and sexual disorders;
  • The Moscow City Psychoendocrinological Center on Arbat is a specialized institution where, in addition to psychotherapeutic assistance, you can get advice from a psychiatrist, nutritionist, sexologist and endocrinologist. It employs specialists who are able to diagnose and treat mental disorders not only in adults, they also see children and adolescents;
  • The Alliance Mental Health Center, located on Leningradsky Prospekt, also specializes in providing psychotherapeutic assistance to residents of the capital. The specialists working here are able to help a person get rid of psychological problems, various kinds of addictions and eating disorders;
  • Rosa Medical Center is located near the Botanichesky Sad metro station. In this psychotherapeutic clinic, along with the latest technologies and developments, the knowledge accumulated by traditional medicine is actively used. All methods are thoroughly tested and are applied in practice only after obtaining the appropriate permission;
  • Center for Neuropsychological Correction "Oh, these kids!" has several branches in the city. The center specializes in providing psychotherapeutic assistance to children, but there is also a department of neuropsychological rehabilitation for adults. It is called "More than kids", and it is located near the Novokuznetskaya metro station.

In addition to these centers, about 100 different medical institutions successfully operate in the capital, where you can get psychotherapeutic assistance. As a rule, the medical services provided here are paid. The cost of admission depends on the characteristics of the center and the qualifications of the specialist to whom you want to enroll.

What Problems Should You Seek a Psychotherapist?

When a person is faced with a specific psychological problem, he may not immediately understand that he needs help. But when this awareness comes, the question immediately arises: “Which specialist should I turn to?”. Today, a fairly large number of psychologists, coaches and personal growth coaches offer their services. But these specialists work with healthy people who want to change their lives. If a person is in a borderline state, then he needs the help of a doctor, which is a psychotherapist.

Well-planned psychotherapy will help to solve such problems:

  1. Get rid of somatic diseases. If you have been trying to recover from a disease for a long time, but your efforts do not give a result, then perhaps the cause of the pathology lies in psychological problems. Physical discomfort will pass after you regain your mental balance.
  2. Deal with the effects of stress. Psychological traumas received at different ages inevitably affect our mental state. A psychotherapist will help you get over the past and take a step into the future.
  3. Get rid of phobias, fears and panic attacks.
  4. Establish relationships with your spouse, return harmony to your sex life.
  5. Cope with neurosis, depression and other types of psycho-emotional disorders.

Psychotherapy can be individual. The patient, aware of his problem, tries to solve it with the help of a psychotherapist. But psychotherapeutic help can be provided to the whole family. This approach helps to establish relationships between all its members, to return love and understanding.

It doesn't matter what problem you have. Feel free to go to a psychotherapy center - here you will definitely be advised by the right specialist and help you solve all your psychological problems.

When do you need the help of a psychotherapist?

With the modern fast pace of life, increased stress and lack of time for rest, one can often hear from colleagues, friends or relatives that they attend consultations with a psychologist or psychotherapist. More and more residents of megacities resort to the support of specialists in order to solve problems associated with the emotional state, personal life, stress at work, and frequent stress.

The head of the Clinic for Psychiatry and Psychotherapy of the European Medical Center, psychotherapist Natalya Rivkina, tells about in what cases and under what conditions it is necessary to seek help from a psychotherapeutic specialist.

Help in crisis and long-term

Often a stressful lifestyle, great responsibility, excessive emotional stress, prolonged stress lead to psycho-emotional maladaptation, depression, a feeling of constant fatigue, and the inability to relax. Such conditions interfere with work, create difficulties in family life, and sometimes lead to alcohol abuse. At the same time, social status or external circumstances do not allow a person to significantly change the situation, lifestyle, and reduce stress. In such cases, with the help of special psychotherapeutic support, one can learn to withstand emotional stress without "breakdowns" and maladaptation, build a new system of behavior in stress, and find internal resources to overcome difficult situations.

Another important direction is the provision of care to patients experiencing acute stress due to the loss of loved ones, emotional trauma or any unexpected traumatic events. It must be remembered that the emotional reaction to grief has its own patterns and can have serious complications, sometimes very long ones. The most serious of them is delayed reactions to stress, when obsessive memories of what happened, depression, apathy, and fear “return” after a considerable time after the injury.

Children are the most susceptible to the development of post-stress disorders. The death of one of the relatives or close ones, the divorce of parents, adoption, as well as serious illnesses are a reason for contacting a child with a psychotherapist.

It is known that the sooner the necessary psychotherapeutic support is provided, the less likely it is to develop pathological reactions to stress.

To provide assistance in stressful and crisis situations, the most effective approach is that combines both special psychotherapeutic techniques and complementary medicine, including various types of massage, reflexology, yoga and relaxation. An individual approach and individually designed psycho-emotional support programs are important, depending on the needs of the patient.

If we talk about psychotherapeutic approaches in dealing with stressful and crisis situations, then the most justified is the use of cognitive-behavioral therapy approaches (one of the areas in psychotherapy based on the ideas that a person’s feelings and behavior are determined not by the situation in which he finds himself , but his perception of this situation).

For children, different approaches and techniques are used than for adults. Particular importance is given to play psychotherapy, which can be combined with elements of body and cognitive therapy. Children and adolescents experience stressful situations differently, they have a higher risk of developing delayed reactions due to stress, therefore, unlike adults, they require special attention and special treatment technologies.

Help for patients with severe somatic diseases

The standard of care for patients with severe somatic diseases accepted in the world medical community is an integrated approach with the mandatory inclusion of psychotherapeutic support programs for the patient and his family members.

This support involves working with post-stress disorders, with patients' reactions to the news of the disease and is aimed at overcoming stress and maintaining the quality of life of the patient.

Studies show that psychological support, which is provided as part of surgical treatment, not only reduces stress, emotional overload, helps the patient and his family "understand" the disease, it is much easier to endure possible side effects of treatment and increases the effectiveness of therapy. For example, without psychological support, quality assistance to patients with oncological, cardiological and severe endocrine diseases is impossible.

Many diseases that pose a real threat to human life cause various mental disorders and social maladaptation of the patient. Moreover, in itself, any disease is stress. Therefore, in order to exclude the development of post-stress disorders, it is necessary to provide him with specialized support in a timely manner, as early as possible from the moment the patient has learned about his disease. To do this, there are programs aimed at helping to overcome stress and post-stress reactions, which are carried out using personalized technologies and help restore human resources in a difficult life situation.

We build an individual program for the patient and his family, thanks to which, even at the outpatient stage, after the end of treatment in the clinic, the patient and family will be able to independently cope with the hardships of the disease in the future.

Correction of eating disorders

Scientific research shows that psychological factors are the root cause of eating disorders. Therefore, programs of psychotherapeutic assistance in the framework of the correction of eating disorders are developed taking into account both emotiogenic eating disorders and disorders due to the presence of mental disorders (anorexia, bulimia).

The main goal of such support is not just to teach the patient to limit himself in food and lose weight, but to help him cope with tension or stress in an alternative way, while maintaining a comfortable weight.

Currently, anorexia and bulimia are a serious threat to the health and sometimes life of women. The situation is further complicated by the fact that patients often do not recognize the presence of the disease. Such patients require long-term psychotherapeutic and drug treatment.

Our clinic provides assistance with eating disorders and in early childhood (from 0 to 8 years), which are often associated with the wrong approach to feeding the baby. The problem may lie both in the "false" ideas of parents about the rational nutrition of the child in the first months and years of life, and a distorted opinion about how a child at a certain age should weigh and look.

After excluding somatic diseases that could cause the problem, specialists help parents learn everything about the needs of the child, about the rational care of the baby, and teach them proper feeding techniques. Parent education can take place already at the stage of pregnancy planning. The program is designed not only for family members (fathers, mothers, grandmothers, etc.), training is also necessary for a child's nanny.

It has long been known that psychotherapeutic assistance is periodically needed by most absolutely healthy people. It is difficult to find a person who is unfamiliar with the feeling of fear, difficulty in controlling their own behavior, depression, low self-esteem. Much has been experienced personally, or familiar from the example of others. But in most cases, qualified help is not often sought, as strong personalities are able to solve the problem on their own. However, even such people have situations that are not easy to deal with alone. In this case, the help of a psychotherapist, who uses a wide range of methods and techniques, is very helpful.

It should be emphasized that psychotherapeutic assistance is extremely multifaceted, so it is impossible to name problems that would be beyond her power. People suffer from various addictions, depression, neurotic disorders, have personal problems, and this is only a small part of the indications for psychotherapeutic sessions. In addition, psychotherapeutic assistance is highly effective in a number of psychosomatic diseases, such as hypertension, dermatology, endocrine disorders, chronic pain syndromes, dermatological and gastroenterological disorders, and in many other cases.

Each voiced problem has its own solution, and psychotherapy will find the right option. It is known that this method of treatment is divided into its main approaches, and each of them has its own characteristics and characteristic differences. For example, when using a systems approach in psychotherapy, the action is focused on marriage, partnership, family, certain groups that are accepted as independent organisms. It is understood that they have their own history, stages of development, an integral system, which consists in internal patterns in the presence of dynamics and a holistic orientation. The humanitarian approach is aimed at rethinking the already existing life experience.

The provision of psychotherapeutic assistance to the patient also includes such an item as teaching a person the right skills to control emotions and thinking. Currently, the science of psychotherapy includes approximately four hundred and eighty well-known psychotherapeutic techniques, so the choice is huge. Psychotherapeutic assistance can be provided not only using a specific method, but also a combined approach is used. As a rule, psychotherapy is carried out as a separate method of treatment, but if necessary, it is supplemented with medical methods. It depends on the task and the purpose of the impact.

When providing psychotherapeutic assistance, the doctor always chooses a course for the patient individually, and such treatment cannot be applied to another person, since there are so many different details of a personal nature. It can be assumed that two patients have a similar problem, for example, they suffer from low self-esteem. However, the therapy will still have significant differences, since the problem has completely different origins. One consultation is enough for a specialist to choose the right method of treatment. Based on a conversation with a person, and all the information available, the psychotherapist chooses the most effective approach that is effective in this case.

Types of psychological assistance can have a different focus. For example, psychological education is used in counseling, but psychoprophylaxis is lectures on the right topic, and assistance in the form of seminars. In psychodiagnostics, existing problems are identified, many psychological indicators are determined. When it comes to psychological counseling, it is understood that psychological assistance is provided to patients whose condition is within the normal psychological norm. Basically, psychotherapeutic methods are aimed at the direct solution of personal deep problems. Psychotherapy also distinguishes between clinical and non-clinical methods.

When applying any type of psychotherapeutic assistance, the specialist considers the patient not as a seriously ill patient, but simply as a person with a different worldview. Therefore, medications are used very limitedly, that is, the treatment is carried out precisely in a psychotherapeutic way. Initially, the psychotherapist seeks to restore the norm, which is determined by both the emotional state and the personal characteristics of the person. Psychotherapeutic help can be a crisis intervention when it is required immediately, or it is carried out as planned, in the form of psychological training, which is mainly a preventive measure. Scientists argue that it is impossible to make a strict distinction between the types of psychological assistance, since there are areas of intersection that are difficult to determine.

As in other areas of activity, when providing psychological assistance, a number of professional requirements are presented to a specialist, their implementation is mandatory. There are special ethical codes associated with the work of a psychotherapist. It is known that there are no simple and unambiguous solutions applicable to the moral and ethical problems that arise in psychotherapeutic practice. Compliance with such principles is considered a prerequisite, treatment should be not only effective, but also socially acceptable. Traditionally, a friendly attitude towards patients is in the foreground, which involves complex professional behavior that provides the client with comfort and confidence. A person should not doubt that he will be provided with psychotherapeutic assistance.
