Psychotherapy can help you to achieve a state of successful performance of a mental function, leading to you being able to engage in productive activities, fulfilling relationships with other people, and the ability to adapt to change and to cope with adversity in healthy ways.
Experiencing occasional anxiety and depression is a normal part of life. However, people with anxiety disorders frequently have intense and excessive worries and people with depression stop enjoying life.
