psychotherapy efficacy

Psychotherapy has been shown to be effective for many mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. Its efficacy depends on factors like the specific therapy type, the therapist’s skill, and the individual’s engagement. Research indicates that about 75-80% of people experience significant improvement with therapy. It works by helping individuals understand and manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, leading to better coping skills and emotional well-being. While not a quick fix, consistent participation in psychotherapy can lead to meaningful and lasting positive changes in mental health.
