This article is a hard-won desire to communicate with clients who, even before meeting at the consultation, have very well figured out for themselves some aspects of the result expected from a meeting with a psychologist.
Each potential client has in his head his own "picture" of the result of communication with a psychologist. Often this "picture" is very vague and not specific. To deal with here sorting out all the possible reasons for contacting a psychologist and the expected results is an overwhelming task.
It is easier to determine in which cases it is not necessary to consult a psychologist. In no way am I trying to influence your decision, but clarifying certain important points for myself before the first meeting with a psychologist will help to specifically save your financial and time resources.
So:
1. If you decide to seek help from a psychologist, then you are an absolutely normal person and everything is in perfect order with your head, no matter what and whoever tells you. Otherwise, go to a psychiatrist.
2. Psychological assistance is paid! You can get help for free in emergency crisis situations (for example, with domestic violence, with suicidal thoughts, catastrophes and natural disasters, with rape and other urgent psychological problems), or undergo an initial interview, or "take part" in a well-built advertising campaign specific specialist.
Freebie (cheese) only in a mousetrap!
3. If you choose a psychologist "cheaper", then first determine for yourself how much "free" medical care cost you, taking into account the cost of drugs, examinations and referrals for various procedures. As a rule, the cheaper a specialist evaluates his services, the more problems he has with the clientele. Think why?
4. You should not contact a psychologist, and he will not help you if:
- You still believe in fairy tales and expect miracles.
- You are waiting for ready-made "wonderful" advice from an intelligent, experienced, knowledgeable specialist.
- If you are sure that someone else or everyone can be happy and worthy of this happiness, just not you.
- If you are not ready to take responsibility for your happiness and are not ready to work for it for yourself, you want a psychologist to work for your happiness (he was paid for THIS).
If you are aware of all of the above and agree with everything, then you are welcome. We TOGETHER will find in you the necessary forces and resources and determine the direction of movement to obtain the desired result!

Why You Never Had A Relationship, Even If You Are Sure You Are And Have Been
Every time I come across a client's problem: distrust, distrust, fear of close relationships. I already want to scream, but I can't scream: most of you just never had a close relationship , there was never a relationship at all. How can you be afraid of a relationship if there was none?
How Many Times Do You Need To See A Psychologist?
You can start with the banal and describe for a long time that everything is individual and the frequency of meetings (their number) is determined based on the needs and financial capabilities of the client.

Children Do Not Need To Be Brought Up, You Need To Build Relationships With Them
“Children do not need to be brought up, you need to build relationships with them” - I read this phrase in one article and I really liked it because it is lively and light. As far back as I can remember, my mother tried to educate me. She believed that her main task was to instill in me certain rules of safety in life, to make sure that I did everything correctly and to point out my mistakes.
Are You A Psychologist For Sure ?
Once, in one topic, I can't remember who, asked: "What criteria can be used to define a specialist (psychologist)?" "How do I understand that I have a professional in front of me?" I thought about these words for a long time afterwards, undertook to write something.
How Can You Make Sure That You Are A Good Person !?
On my first trip to New Orleans, I visited the Master of Tarot cards, Avery. He favorably distinguished himself from his fellow mummers like magicians in gothic clothes decorated with beads, their fingers were decorated with rings, amulets, and crystal balls proudly lay on the table.
