Many people wonder what the difference is between psychotherapy and counselling. Psychotherapy and counselling are quite similar. However there is some consensus that counselling tends to focus more on specific, clearly defined issues and challenges. It is usually quite short-term in nature. Psychotherapy, on the other hand, tends to be a much more broad examination of existential concerns and personal difficulties often over an extended period of time. Both are beneficial, promote personal growth, and facilitate emotional insight.
