Are you wondering if professional psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy are different than just discussing your issues and problems with family and friends?

If so, then you might find it interesting and helpful to know that according to the scientific research of behavioral science researchers who conduct “outcome research” on the effectiveness of psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy; the clinical experience of many psychotherapists, couples therapists, marriage counselors, premarital counselors, and hypnotherapists; and the direct personal experience and self-reports of many clients who have participated actively in professional psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy; the answer to this question is, “Yes, in a number of very important, meaningful, and clinically significant ways, benefiting from professional psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy REALLY IS DIFFERENT than just discussing your issues and problems with family and friends.”

I’m Brett Richards, M.A., MFT, experienced psychotherapist, couples therapist, marriage counselor, premarital counselor, and hypnotherapist, with a successful professional psychotherapy and counseling practice serving Encino and surrounding San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, and Southern California communities.

As I indicate on my psychotherapy and counseling website (www.BrettRichardsMFT.com), and as I have indicated in this Counseling and Psychotherapy Blog Post, if you are suffering from issues related to anxiety, depression, relationships, marriage, family, or other challenges in your life, then professional psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, or optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy would likely be helpful to you in ways that talking with family and friends just can’t be.

Depending on the particular family members and friends you have, sometimes family and friends might truly wish to help you, and sometimes might actually be encouraging, supportive, and willing to listen to you.

However, they often do not really know what to say or do to truly help you in the manner that a professional psychotherapist, couples therapist, marriage counselor, premarital counselor, and hypnotherapist is able to do.

Of course, it would be my pleasure to share with you a lot more regarding how and why this is, and also regarding how you might benefit from my helpful expertise as a professional psychotherapist, couples therapist, marriage counselor, premarital counselor, and hypnotherapist.

So, if you are having problems with depression, anxiety, fears, phobias, life transitions, relationships, marriage, family, or any other issues and challenges in life – – or if you have any questions about psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy, or about me as a professional psychotherapist, couples therapist, marriage counselor, premarital counselor, and hypnotherapist – – or if you reside in Encino, Tarzana, Woodland Hills, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, or surrounding San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, and Southern California communities and would like to explore how you might benefit from convenient and equally effective Remote Therapy by Video, or In-Office Therapy in my peaceful San Fernando Valley psychotherapy and counseling office in Encino – – please Email me or Call me for a CONFIDENTIAL INITIAL CONSULTATION AT NO CHARGE, with absolutely no obligation.

I would be delighted to collaborate with you as psychotherapist and client, and to be of service to you in psychotherapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and optional hypnosis and hypnotherapy, for the meaningful purpose of helping you work toward creating a happier, more satisfying life! I look forward to hearing from you!
