Who is the best psychotherapist?
You are your best therapist.
Physically and psychologically, we all have the ability to heal ourselves. The job of an excellent psychologist is to guide and help visitors to get a positive psychology of internal self-treatment. Chinese medicine also gives patients a guide to restore their potential.
Psychological intervention is meaningful, and it is a psychological service means different from general mental illness. It is mainly a means of emergency rescue for people who have major changes or encounter stressful things, mainly to prevent or reduce the trauma of disasters and accidents to the parties.
In the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, many such psychologists and medical staff intervened in the psychological crisis of groups and individuals. Zhu Zhuohong and other experts and teachers talked about that memory at the tenth anniversary of psychological assistance after the Wenchuan earthquake this year.
However, psychological assistance is neither a short-term crisis intervention nor a temporary psychological first aid. Intervention is to prevent suicide or long-term depression, and assistance is for personal longer-term mental health.
On May 24th, 2008, I went to Juyuan Middle School in Dujiangyan with the documentary crew of CCTV to provide psychological assistance to the victims' homes. The victim was a female student from Juyuan Middle School. The insurance company accompanied 12 thousand, and the house was stolen two days ago, and the girl's belongings were stolen together. This is a cruel blow to my mother. Since discovering that her daughter's relics and compensation were stolen, her mother has been in a coma, lying in bed in a tent without eating or drinking. The victim's father took them home. Mr Zhou Bing, the director of the documentary, gave the money to his father on behalf of the Dunhuang Cultural Promotion Foundation, intending to leave as soon as possible. I wish I could take the opportunity to intervene in the psychological crisis and tell his mother the news, because it is also a kind of psychological comfort and treatment for her. Later, I wish the teacher sat by her mother's bed, held her hand, and used erotic language to induce her to release her grief and express her thoughts about her daughter. Finally, help her vent her repressed grief and indignation. When she left, her mother sat up and thanked the doctor for his help. This case is actually very representative. There are many patients with acute stress disorder after the disaster, and some patients will have depressive sub-stupor, which needs to be induced through emotional language to help patients release their depressed grief. This is psychological intervention.
Therefore, if there is no timely intervention, in a major crisis or war, there may be more people who commit suicide than those who die from natural injuries. The US military is a good example in this respect. Suicide among American soldiers after Vietnam War and Iraq War is very common.
The most basic requirement of psychological assistance service is trust, so please believe me, a person in need must find a suitable psychological counselor to talk it over.
I think the word "intervention" is not accurate, it should be psychological guidance.
Treating mental illness is intended to guide patients to solve problems, and through external guidance, dredge and dredge things that are suppressed and incomprehensible inside. Heart disease needs a cardiologist, that's what I mean.
I don't know what intervention here means. Personally, I pay more attention to "guidance" and accept the word "guidance" in dealing with mental health problems.
