Are you facing any of these situations?
- Stressed, troubled, or exhausted
- Feeling sad or not knowing where to start talking
- Unable to adapt to work
- Having problems with family members, always ending up in arguments when talking
- Insomnia, waking up repeatedly, repeatedly thinking about the same issues
Have you ever felt this way? On days when the problems weigh heavily on your heart, but when you look at the people beside you, you don’t want to tell them. Partly because we all know everyone carries heavy burdens in their hearts, and partly because we know that the best person to solve any problem that comes is ourselves.
But!! Sometimes, going around in circles with problems shows no sign of a solution. If you are facing such problems, talking to an expert like a psychologist is the solution. Research from Psychology Today and the American Psychological Association found that talking to an expert can help reduce stress and improve emotional management effectively.
Why does talking to a psychologist help?
Psychologists… listen without bias or judgment
Psychologists… keep confidentiality strictly according to professional ethics
Psychologists… provide counseling based on academic principles and internationally recognized guidelines
It is a space where we can talk about overwhelming problems without worry. Psychologists listen and understand feelings, can catch details well, and often provide perspectives that you might not have thought of.
Open a space of understanding with Dr. Thanita Wasprasong, a counseling psychologist (Ph.D.), an expert certified in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) from the Oxford Mindfulness Foundation in collaboration with the University of Oxford. Research from Oxford University found that Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an effective approach to prevent and alleviate depression by helping patients “step back from” negative thoughts and learn to see them as just passing mental events.
Consulting a psychologist does NOT mean you have a mental health problem!
In fact, many people choose to consult psychologists for self-development and to enhance various potentials, such as
- Developing communication skills learning how to communicate more effectively with others
- Boosting self-confidence
- Understanding yourself exploring your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
- Managing stress learning techniques and strategies to cope with stress, adapt, and get through major life changes
Therefore, psychologists are experts who help us live a better quality of life, not just mental health caregivers. Consulting a psychologist can be compared to an annual health check-up that helps you be aware of risks before becoming ill.
Dr. Thanita provides a safe space for you to talk without judgment, using internationally recognized approaches to help you understand yourself and cope with life’s challenges. You don’t need to have a “mental health problem.” Whether you are going through a difficult time or just want to know yourself better, come talk here… a space where you will no longer feel alone.
