Supportive Psychotherapy

What is Supportive Psychotherapy?

Supportive Psychotherapy is a form of talk therapy that helps people emotionally by suggesting ways to adjust to challenging situations and enhances psychological strength, self-esteem, and coping strategies. Supportive Psychotherapy differs from analytical treatments because it primarily offers emotional as well as psychological support and encouragement which enables patients to connect with validating communication. You become more receptive to better thinking approaches and behavioral modifications.

Reinforcing emotions through these therapies helps deal with chronic mental health issues to help foster stability and well-being over time.

She is compassionate, and sincere, listens intently and is always able to calm me and help me focus and get the most from my treatments. Dr Kazi has been available whenever I need help. She is on top of my care and aggressively monitors my progress. I came to her suffering major depression and overall a mess.

I have had amazing experiences with this business, both on the medical and business side. Any issues I've experienced with billing have been handled gracefully and with patience; the staff are very easy to talk to and are understanding. I LOVE PA Hofer; she (and other staff) are always very quick to answer online Portal questions, are very flexible with visits, understand when it comes to medication costs/changes, and go the extra step when it comes to evidence-based practice.

I've been taking my mom to Dr. Kazi for the past 17 months and we still go. She is an amazing physician and her staff is very warm and welcoming. She has helped my mom when mom needed her the most. If it was not for Dr. Kazi's, I don't know what would have happened to my mom. I am so grateful to her. The bonus is her staff is awesome. Very response to emails and phone calls. Amanda is amazing!! I can't thank Dr. Kazi enough!!
