What is Psychoeducation?
Psychoeducation is considered an essential aspect of the therapeutic process and is usually provided in conjunction with primary therapy. It is the process of providing education and information to those who are seeking or receiving mental health services. It dives deep into the problem and helps explain what is happening in the brain in an educational way.
When this service is utilized, most therapy patients feel their symptoms improve faster and decrease their therapy time. This education helps those understand past trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and betrayal deeper.
Types of Psychoeducation
Based on your current psychological state and developmental stage, your therapist will determine what psychoeducation format is best fitted for your needs. Psychoeducation can go beyond individuals or groups and extend to friends, family, or other individuals directly involved with your life.
There are a variety of delivery methods of psychoeducation. Here at Sano Counseling Center, we offer a wide range of resources, including:
- In-person presentations
- Media curriculum
- Online resources
- Worksheets
- Information sheets
Psychoeducation is not just a process in which you will receive information through sessions and resources. Remember that all psychoeducation services are led by our trained therapists who will work with you to keep you engaged in applying what you are learning directly to your life and current mental state.
