Starting Treatment With a Psychologist

What are psychologists?

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.

How do psychologists work?

Thriveworks psychologists in Huntington Beach, CA provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.

Can I see a psychologist in person or online?

How long would I see a psychologist?

Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Huntington Beach is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.

How Can a Psychologist Help Me? 

Psychologists are licensed to diagnose and treat many different types of mental health conditions. But beyond that, they’re incredible empaths who use their listening skills to evaluate your needs and address them effectively in therapy or counseling. From anxiety about work to relationship issues between partners, psychologists can effectively address multiple scenarios and perspectives. While treatment methods may vary, psychologists can help you cope with: 

  • Depression 
  • Difficulty processing a divorce or breakup 
  • Self-esteem issues
  • Relationship problems
  • Child or teen behavioral issues 
  • The loss of a friend or family member
  • Financial or work-related stress 
  • Different forms of anxiety

Should I Talk with a Psychologist Virtually?  

Many of our psychologists are available virtually through our online therapy and counseling services. Connect with your psychologist from home, the office, or while traveling to make the most out of your sessions, regardless of your schedule. With virtual therapy and counseling from Thriveworks, it’s easier than ever to put your mental health needs first.

Online counseling might be appealing if you: 

  • Travel or work often
  • Have mobility or chronic health concerns that limit mobility
  • Are anxious about speaking with a psychologist in person
  • Would like to avoid commuting to a brick-and-mortar office
  • Frequently take care of elderly family members or watch after kids 

We’ve made talking with one of our psychologists even easier with online counseling. Now, you can attend virtual sessions anywhere with reliable internet and somewhere private to talk.

My entire experience so far has been great.. both my psychiatrist and therapist have been a good fit in my treatment.. I am learning new skills with each visit, and gain a little more insight as well.. the convenience of having video visits is an added plus since my anxiety keeps me from driving right now.

I was extremely impressed by Juan's ability to connect and provide valuable information during my therapy. Juan's perception of facts and information retention and his ability to understand my place during my separation has help me cope with my stress. Juan has the ability to clarify and identify overlooked areas of concern. I'm very pleased with his professionalism during my therapy sessions.

My therapist is great! She's professional, personable, and on time. She goes the extra mile to be helpful. I don't like the Zoom format; I prefer in person sessions but she does her best to make it feel like we are in the same room. Very happy.

I started with Dr. Maddy about 3 months ago and I think that I had my last appointment last Friday,1/12. I really enjoyed talking to her. She is very down to earth and, most of all, she listens. I told her some things a few months ago and she remembered when I was talking with her on Friday. Amazing. We talked about a lot of issues, among them, what would I be working on, my certain issues. I would very heartedly recommend her. I can’t say enough kind words about her.
