Psychological support (is not) for me (?)
This article is authored by Ana Fidalgo and Liliana Marques, psychologists and founders and directors of the psychology clinic O Teu Lugar, who share their professional experience to address the doubts and fears that still exist around seeking psychological support.
The authors gather in this article some of the most common hesitations that may arise before deciding to seek specialized mental health help.
Among the mentioned fears are the fear of being judged, the idea that we should be able to solve everything on our own, and doubts about the effectiveness of psychology as a form of treatment.
The article also addresses questions about what happens during the psychological counseling process, although the available version appears to be incomplete.
