Psychotherapy is a treatment method provided through mutual relationship and communication between the client and the counselor, based on psychological information.
The psychotherapy process actually starts from the moment the client calls for an appointment. Therapy is a journey to the spiritual world of the client together with the therapist. In this journey, it is the rash dynamics of the recurrent event experienced "at that moment" that brings the client to therapy. The reason for this is to try to understand how events that happened in the past or that are still happening form the basis of today's problems. Therapy is actually the individual's request to get to know himself better. Because in therapy, by considering the triangle of emotion, thought and behavior, the person confronts his past and present, his mistakes and good deeds. Confronting is a difficult journey. The main duty of the therapist in this difficult journey is to try to understand the client's thoughts and feelings without criticizing, embarrassing, or judging them. The client's relationship with the therapist creates a model for all of their relationships.
The client internalizes the ideal relationship learned in this process and carries it to other relationships.
Every transfer experienced during therapy is also a resolution. For example, the client begins to release the burden of sadness, embarrassment and anger, which has been causing psychological pressure for many years, from his shoulders by transferring his traumatizing experience, which he has not shared with anyone, to his therapist, whom he is sure of being able to criticize and judge himself. The empathic stance of the therapist in the session is one of the healing factors. Because for the client, being understood and not being judged is as important as the solution. In the following sessions, the therapist, who begins to get to know the client more holistically, gradually attempts to make comments. Each interpretation is also a mirror held for the client himself and his world. The first point to be considered is that during the therapy, the client does not make comments without knowing enough. Interpretation should be neither too much nor too little, as it will act as a beacon in raising awareness in the client's world. The second point is that the therapist does not become a mentor, as is supposed. it is food. The main thing in therapy is to make the client think about himself. persistently trying to give advice also includes the meaning of taking the client's will under a mortgage. If this is done, the client will not think about himself and will constantly expect alternative solutions from the therapist. However, the aim of therapy is to strengthen the client's self-structure and reconstruct it in a way that it can adapt to the outside world. The third point is that the therapist stands by neither the prohibition nor the desire of the client. The therapist should not present their own value judgments to the client. Because trying to make an individual look like ourselves by force is also a form of violence. In the final stage, it is rather talked about future designs. At this point, it is essential to help the adult client take an active role in shaping his life. The therapy begins to reach the targeted point when the client, who has experienced all these gains, gradually takes steps to strengthen his/her self. The awareness of the client increases with the comments made. Thus, on the one hand, the person tries to know himself better, on the other hand, he learns to evaluate his self more objectively, without being wasted in the events. The ultimate goal of therapy is for the client to learn ways to cope with life's problems without the need for a therapist, and to take safer steps towards a new life.
