Summary

Counselling is a long-established form of mental health treatment that involves talking with a trained professional – like a trusted member of the team at Brightside Health – to address psychological and emotional issues, improve relationships, and promote personal growth and development. Therapy can take on many different forms.

The goal of therapy is to help overcome challenges, gain insight into thoughts and behaviors, and develop coping strategies to manage stress and difficult emotions.
