What is the difference between medication and psychotherapy?

Therapy works to uncover root causes of distress. An integrative approach combining therapy and medication can be effective.

True, lasting relief from mental and emotional pain requires more than medication alone. Therapy works to uncover the root causes of distress, helping to change behavior patterns and foster sustainable growth. An integrative approach, combining therapy and medication, can be an effective option. Your therapist can work alongside your prescribing physician or psychiatrist as part of a coordinated care approach.
