The difference between therapy, counselling and psychology
Therapy, counselling, and psychology, although often used interchangeably, have distinct differences. Counselling, represented by professionals in Melbourne, involves practitioners with varying levels of education, such as the Diploma Of Counselling, providing support for issues like grief, relationships, and stress. The focus is on processing emotions, making decisions, and empowering clients with coping skills. The word itself, counselling, (as in counselling skills) can be applied across professionals and this is sometimes the reason for confusion.
On the other hand, psychology, requiring a minimum of 6 years of university education, board-certified internship, and ongoing training, delves deeper into psychotherapy, addressing unconscious triggers and conducting research. While both aim to improve clients’ lives, counselling suits sudden curveballs, while psychology is tailored for understanding oneself and addressing past trauma, as well as detailed knowledge of barriers to progress.
Therapy is the specific collaborative process that happens between two or more people and a therapist (either a counsellor/psychologist/psychiatrist with the overarching goal of helping that person live a better life). The key thing that changes across the different professions is the modality and focus of the mental health work.
