Psychotherapy is a dynamic process that provides great explanations for understanding human behavior. Personality development begins during the first years of life. Children born into warm and empathic environments are likely to grow into healthy adults. If this nurturing is absent personality disorders can develop. Psychotherapy explains some of these derailments. Without help many people continue to function in dysfunctional ways. The barriers erected to survive in the past become harmful to their present situation. Psychotherapy helps people re-gain a feeling of safety and self esteem. Through this restoration people are then able to begin enjoying more meaningful relationships.

Psychotherapy's major objectives are to reduce symptoms, maintain or enhance day-to-day functioning, and improve quality of life. Psychotherapy helps with managing stressful life events, the effects of trauma, medical disease, or bereavement (such as the death of a loved one), and some mental health issues like anxiety or depression. Positive physiological and neurological changes have been associated with psychotherapy, which has been shown to enhance emotional and psychological health. Psychotherapy comes in a variety of forms, and certain forms may be more effective in particular therapeutic contexts. Psychotherapy may be used in combination with medication or other therapies.
