Counselor and Psychologist – Nirvana

We often use the term ‘psychologist’ and ‘counsellor’ as a synonym to each other. Even though, both the profession has resemblances, the terms differ widely. A trained counsellor does the job of counselling to offer talk-based therapy. They usually focus on conversation with the individuals going through personal issues that needs to be resolved. A counsellor helps address the difficulties confidentially in a positive way by acknowledging and clarifying the issues, exploring options, developing wide strategies, and increasing self-awareness and self-belief. The counselling can be based on different issues including personal grief, work and career issues, parenting, addiction, abuse and trauma, communication, and relationship issues etc.
Psychologists, on the other hand, specializes on various fields of psychology, like clinical psychologists, forensic psychologists, neuropsychologists, health psychologists etc. They work with collecting information for research purpose, conduct studies, identifies behavioural and emotional pattern in patients, diagnoses disorders, sets treatment plans, make referrals etc. Psychologists mainly focus on a patient’s history to conduct diagnosis and formulate treatment plans. They follow confidential therapies like cognitive-behavioural, interpersonal, humanistic, psychodynamic, or combination therapies to treat patients. Psychologists often combine therapy and medication for effective results.
