I'm going to a psychologist.

For readers aged 14+

It's not easy to live when the world is turned upside down. Parents don't understand, teachers are difficult, friends act strangely, and there's no energy to explain what's wrong. Anxiety, apathy, lack of a feeling of happiness… The question worries you: "Am I okay? Am I fine?"

In media and social networks, people are advised to turn to psychologists. But how do you decide to go for a session when there are so many myths and prejudices, including the idea that only "crazy" people go to them? What to say and how to properly express what bothers you? How does group therapy differ from individual therapy? What if you also want to become a psychologist?

Kateryna Goltsberg, a psychologist with twenty years of experience, talks about everything a person needs to know when stepping into a psychologist's office and wanting to receive real help. She describes the work processes, debunks myths, and advises on how to choose the type of psychological help and how to formulate a request. The quality of help depends on this knowledge.
