Counseling, Therapy, and Psychotherapy - What's the Difference?
In the behavioral and mental health space, the terms counseling, therapy and psychotherapy are often used interchangeably. However, there are key nuances between the three terms that may help you find what is most appropriate for you.
Counseling
Counseling is often shorter-term, with a focus on providing concrete guidance on overcoming specific challenges.
Therapy vs Psychotherapy
Therapy is a broader term for a service aimed at resolving physical, mental, or behavioral concerns, which includes things such as physical therapy or occupational therapy. In the behavioral and mental health space, therapy most commonly refers to psychotherapy.
Psychotherapy and Counseling
Compared to counseling, psychotherapy can be a longer-term process, with a focusing on exploring underlying patterns of thinking and behavior. The goal of psychotherapy is to help people improve their mental health, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life by addressing deep-seated psychological, emotional, or behavioral issues.
Depending on the person and their unique needs, the goals can vary quite a bit, but generally include:
Understanding yourself better — gaining insight into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
Resolving internal conflicts — such as guilt, shame, self-esteem issues, or unresolved trauma
Improving relationships — learning healthier communication and boundary-setting
Coping with stress and life challenges — like grief, major transitions, or chronic illness
Managing mental health conditions — such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, etc.
Changing unhelpful patterns — like negative thinking, avoidance, or addictive behaviors
Building resilience and emotional regulation — learning how to stay grounded in tough situation
It’s not about being “fixed” — it’s more about growing, healing, and becoming more equipped to live in alignment with your values and goals.

Counseling is a personalized process that emphasizes the unique needs and experiences of each individual. It involves a collaborative relationship between the counselor and the client, where the counselor actively listens and seeks to understand the client's specific concerns, goals, and circumstances. This individualized approach ensures that the counseling techniques and interventions are tailored to resonate with the client’s personal context, allowing for more effective exploration of thoughts and feelings. By recognizing that no two individuals are alike, counselors create a supportive environment that fosters trust and openness. This tailored support empowers clients to work through their challenges at their own pace, leading to meaningful insights and lasting growth. Ultimately, the goal of counseling is to help individuals navigate life’s complexities in a way that aligns with their distinct values and aspirations.
