Common Misconceptions About Counselling
Psychological counselling, in many ways, is just like an educational experience. Just like you visit a physician if you have any ailment, similarly, you visit a counsellor if you want to discuss and examine something that is bothering you and restricting you from leading a full and happy life. Since you may not know someone who has received psychological or personal counselling, you may have some questions about what it is like. Some of the common misconceptions lingering around counselling are:
-
If I need help, something must be wrong with me. I must be damaged or abnormal.
-
No one can understand my problem. I don’t deserve help.
-
A counsellor will send me to a hospital.
-
I will be put on medication and will be addicted to them for a lifetime.
-
If I try harder, I won’t need treatment.
-
People will mock me if I seek help.
-
Therapy is just a lot of talking and listening; I can get the help I need from my friends.
-
If I get treatment, I’ll have to keep going forever.
-
It is an expensive affair. I won’t be able to bear the costs.
