What’s it all about?

Psychological therapy is another name for talking therapy – psychological treatments for mental and emotional problems like stress, anxiety and depression. There are many types of talking therapy, but they all involve working with a trained therapist. Therapy may be conducted on a one to one basis, in a peer group or with family.
