Because therapy shouldn’t be guesswork .

Avoid losing money trying to figure out the ‘right’ approach to your mental health and find your fit sooner with this clear, practical guide.

If you’re struggling to make peace with your childhood, would you see a Gestalt therapist or a psychoanalyst? If you want help with anxiety, how do you choose between CBT, ACT and DBT? Choosing a therapist can leave you staring at acronyms you won't remember and approaches you can’t tell apart. Even when a description sounds promising, it doesn’t tell you what would actually happen in a session—or how to decide whether the approach suits you. The Different Types of Psychotherapy is for anyone who wants to choose therapy with confidence before committing their time and money. This workbook breaks down the major approaches and their sub-modalities using clear, consistent criteria, so you can compare them without piecing everything together yourself. By the end, you’ll know how to shop for therapy effectively.

Inside, you’ll find:

• Clear explanations of what each approach involves and how it aims to improve your mental health

• Guidance on whom each approach tends to suit—and whom it may not

• Descriptions of what sessions might feel like in practice

• Reflection questions to help you clarify what you want from therapy and which approaches appeal to you
