  Psycho education teaches you — and sometimes family and friends — about your illness, including treatments, coping strategies and problem-solving skills.

During psychotherapy
For most types of psychotherapy, you and your therapist generally sit facing each other during sessions. Your therapist encourages you to talk about your thoughts and feelings and what's troubling you. Don't worry if you find it hard to open up about your feelings. Your therapist can help you gain more confidence and comfort.

Sometimes a therapist may ask you to do "homework" — activities or practices that build on what you learn during your regular therapy sessions. Over time, discussing your issues can help improve your mood, change the way you think and feel about yourself, and improve your ability to cope with problems.

Because psychotherapy sometimes involves intense emotional discussions, you may find yourself crying, upset or having an angry outburst during a session. You may also feel physically exhausted after a session. Your therapist is there to help you cope with such feelings and emotions.

How long you have psychotherapy depends on your situation. In some cases, you may need therapy for only a few months. In other cases, you may continue therapy for a year or even more.

• It's your preferred treatment choice
• You don't want to take psychiatric medications
• You've tried other treatments and they haven't worked
• Other treatments aren't appropriate for your situation — for instance, you can't tolerate the side effects from antidepressants
• You want to experience emotional growth and healing
• You're having a hard time overcoming negative moods and self-destructive behavior
• You want to prevent a relapse of your condition after stopping other treatment

Risks
In general, there's little risk in using psychotherapy. Because psychotherapy can explore painful feelings and experiences, though, you may feel emotionally uncomfortable at times. Some forms of psychotherapy, such as exposure therapy, may require you to confront situations you'd rather avoid — such as airplanes if you have a fear of flying. This can lead to temporary distress or anxiety. But the coping skills you learn should help you later on to manage and conquer distressful feelings and thoughts.
