What is Counseling & Therapy?

Therapy is simply a clinical term for counseling. That’s all! A therapist is a counselor. As you can see in the definition, the term “counselor” is used to define a therapist, or someone who administers therapy. A great link to figure out what the counseling process involves and the credentials of different providers is Counseling Process & Provider Credentials.

Psychotherapy is also a helpful resource for better understanding therapy and counseling.
