Psychotherapy is a set of techniques intended to improve mental health, emotional or behavioral issues of individuals, group, or family interactional climates. Mental health problems can include psychological, social and somatic dimensions, which often make it hard for people to manage their lives and achieve their goals. Psychotherapy is aimed at these problems, and attempts to help people to solve them via a number of different approaches and techniques.
The term counseling is often used interchangeably with psychotherapy. It was originally adopted by Carl Rogers to distinguish his work from the more medically oriented psychotherapy but the difference has become blurred among lay people. Generally, counseling deals with ordinary every day problems and issues, while psychotherapy generally deals with deeper mental and emotional problems. Psychotherapy requires more intense training than counseling, and often tends to involve a longer time. (But see: brief, or strategic, therapy). Psychotherapeutic interventions are often designed to treat the client in the medical model, although not all psychotherapeutic approaches follow the model of "illness/cure", but are also short term. In this article the term can be taken to be the same as psychotherapy.
To emphasize the voluntary, free agency, consumer orientation of people seeking psychotherapy, they are often called clients, but psychotherapy as a method of treatment is regulated, at least in most Western countries, by the laws concerning patients and their rights. Commonly psychotherapy involves a therapist and client(s) — and in family therapy several family members or even other members from their social network — who discuss their issues in an effort to discover the underlying problems and to find constructive solutions. Because sensitive topics are often discussed during psychotherapy, therapists are expected, and usually legally bound, to respect client confidentiality.
