Is psychotherapy the same as pouring out my heart?Psychotherapy is a type of therapy that is conducted through talking. However, unlike normal talking, psychotherapists will systematically discuss the causes and symptoms of mental health problems with you based on theories and research findings. The therapy process focuses on participants' understanding of their own emotions and thoughts, and they will work together to set goals and plan how to make changes. Therefore, psychotherapy may include sharing, but not just talking.

What is forensic psychology?Forensic psychology is a field that combines psychology and law. It involves the application of psychological principles and research methods to legal issues and the criminal justice system. Forensic psychologists use their expertise to assist in a variety of civil and criminal matters within the justice system. Forensic psychologists play different roles in the legal system. Some of their main responsibilities include Psychological Evaluation: Evaluating mental health, ability to stand trial, risk assessment, and determining the presence of psychological disorders. Expert Testimony: Providing expert testimony in court to offer a professional opinion on psychological issues relevant to the case. This may include gaining insight into the psychological state of an individual involved in a legal proceeding or assessing the credibility of a witness. Professional Counseling: Counseling with legal professionals, such as attorneys, judges, law enforcement officers, etc., to provide psychological insight and guidance on legal matters. They can assist with jury selection, trial strategy, and the development of rehabilitation programs for offenders.

Mental Health Assessments: If you or someone you know is facing a mental health issue that intersects with the legal system, forensic psychology services may be helpful.

Risk Assessment: If there are concerns about potential risks or threats, a forensic psychologist can conduct a risk assessment. This may be relevant in cases involving violence, stalking or assessing the likelihood of reoffending. 5.
