Psychotherapy is the name given to a large group of techniques that seek to change what happens inside your mind from outside, usually but not always through talking. According to the Mayo Clinic, psychotherapy is a general term for a process of treating mental and emotional disorders by talking about your condition and related issues with a mental health provider. Basically, psychotherapy helps people discuss and learn about their disorders in order to combat them.
