WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
COUNSELING, THERAPY & PSYCHOTHERAPY?
Some people make a small distinction between the two terms. “Counseling” is a brief treatment that targets a specific symptom or situation, while "psychotherapy" is a longer-term treatment that attempts to gain more insight into someone's problems. However, many people use the terms interchangeably.
