the Rapid pace of modern life is saturated with stressful situations. Sometimes internal resources of the individual are not sufficient on their own to cope with them. The optimal solution in this case will be to seek psychological help. Range currently available psychological services is very wide. Often people may not understand what kind of specialist he needs: psychologist, psychoanalyst, psychotherapist, psychiatrist. General the prefix "psycho" gives the impression that these people are one and the same. But it is not. Face it, what's the difference between these professionals.
- a Psychologist has a basic psychological education. The scope of his professional activities are diverse, it can work in your organization or on the helpline, deal with the selection of personnel, teaching and more. In order to do counseling, he should receive additional education in any of the directions of psychotherapy (psychoanalysis, Gestalt, cognitive-behavioral therapy, etc.). In its work, the psychologist uses a special way organized conversation aimed at solving psychological problems of the client. In the course, which is improving the state without drug therapy. If there is a need to understand the current situation, to improve emotional state and relationships with others then it is advisable to go to a psychologist.
- the Therapist is a specialist with a basic medical background (psychiatry) and has additional professional training in psychotherapy. The same preparation can get a psychologist, but within the framework of existing legislation, expertise is not a therapist, and counselor. In this case, the differences in activities of these two professionals will be negligible. As a doctor, a therapist has the right to diagnose disease and prescribe drugs. This is crucial in the case of more serious violations of the psychological state, when no pharmacological effects improve the condition can not be achieved. However, the main instrument of work of the therapist remains conversation, unlike the psychiatrist, based primarily on drug therapy. He works with these conditions, when a person is ill, but the disease is still can not be called.
- a Psychiatrist is a doctor with a medical degree in the direction psychiatry. He deals mostly with severe mental illness when a person cannot function normally in society, losing touch with reality and/or has such symptoms as delusions and hallucinations. The basic method is the drug therapy. In the sphere of its competences knowledge of the etiology, course and prognosis of mental diseases, as well as the ability to freely navigate in modern medicines designed to relieve symptoms and improve the patient's condition. He has no psychological support, and diagnose the disease and cure it. However, the distinction between health and disease is quite blurred. Some patients who are assigned to drug treatment, can simultaneously receive psychotherapeutic help. That is, in some cases, a psychiatrist and a therapist and psychologist can work with the same person.
- the Therapist is a specialist with the underlying psychological or medical background and is trained in one of the psychoanalytic schools. It is the therapist who specializiruetsya in the field of depth psychology, in this area as psychoanalysis. His task is to help the patient to expand understanding of himself, to realize the unconscious motives of his conduct. To the analyst it is advisable to contact if there are problems that do not allow them to lead a full life. In modern psychoanalytic environment, there is disagreement as to the appropriateness of the use of the status of "psychoanalyst". Some analysts are of the opinion that so call themselves have the right to only members of the International psychoanalytical Association, which was organized by Sigmund Freud in 1910. The conditions for admission to this organization is very strict and require large financial and time costs. Because many talented professionals, using the method of psychoanalysis having a successful and long-standing practice in it does not belong. They can call themselves psychoanalytic psychotherapists, but the difference between psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy insignificant.
