Goals of Mental Health Counseling

TANU CHOKSI

Facilitating Behavioural Change Mental health counseling aims at first identifying unhealthy behaviours and correcting them. A counselor first understands the nature of the problem and then plans how to correct these behaviours. The goal is then to facilitate behavioural change so as to ensure the patient lives a life free of behaviours that curb a fulfilled life.

Enhancing Coping & Problem-Solving Skills When a patient experiences mental health problem, their coping and problem-solving skills take a major hit which ultimately affects many areas of their life. Psychological therapy aims at helping patients restore their problem-solving skills and strengthen their coping skills as well so that they don’t allow their mental health problems to affect other aspects of their life.

Improving Relationships When a person experiences mental health problem, their loved ones suffer too which may make their relationships suffer as a result. Mental health counseling helps an individual sail through their relationships and how they can manage their relationships despite their mental health problems.

Pushing One to Their Maximum Potential Sometimes, individuals who experience mental health difficulties believe themselves to be lesser than others and feel undermotivated. This diminishes their ability to go out there and accomplish their goals and live up to their full potential. Counselling helps these individuals to feel good about themselves and accomplish their goals which pushes them to reach out to their maximum potential.
