People seek treatment for a variety of reasons. They may be suffering from panic attacks and phobias, culture shock, the aftermath of traumatic situations, depression, loneliness, obsessive thoughts, physical complaints, anxiety, compulsions, mood swings, or doubts about certain life choices. There may also be recurring patterns of aggression or disappointment in your personal and family relationships, work difficulties, unresolved grief, couple conflicts, problems related to a change of country or major life changes such as motherhood, old age, etc.
Sometimes it is not a specific problem but a general feeling of dissatisfaction or malaise. There are many people who function well at work or at home, but still do not feel well.
The examples above are just some of the problems that can arise in a person’s personal life and cause them to seek help. In general, it can be said that when a person does not have the quality of life he or she would like, it is time to consult a psychological counselor or psychoanalyst.
The aim of treatment is to regain the desire to live, i.e., to develop projects that give you pleasure and make your life fulfilling. The emphasis is on achieving a significant improvement in your psychic, emotional, and social quality of life, with the aim that your complaints disappear. It also allows you to feel freer to choose what is best for your life while remaining true to who you really are.
