1. Do you specialize in psychological counseling?
There are still many people who are ashamed to do psychological counseling, and they will regard it as a very cowardly and shameful thing, which leads many institutions in this big market to cater to the psychology of these people and will not directly say that they are doing psychological counseling, such as spiritual growth companies. Including some parents will also avoid their children's psychological problems and send their children to some similar induction classes or institutions for psychological counseling. These institutions have not faced up to the inner problems of children, and some even have the opposite effect.
2. Does everyone have it?
A professional and reliable psychological counseling institution is not comprehensive, and its appointment and reception processes are very strict and professional. For visitors who come to ask for help, the first thing the organization should do is to identify and screen. Specially trained senior psychoanalysts will let visitors talk about their own problems first, and initially judge whether this problem can be helped through psychological counseling. In addition, visitors with obvious signs of mental illness such as auditory hallucinations and persecution delusions should be decisively rejected, and it is suggested that they be transferred to a mental hospital in time. For some visitors who commit suicide or strongly self-harm, we will inform them of the free public welfare hotline. In addition, professional psychological counseling institutions will not receive minors alone. We have met several minors with good economic conditions and want to do psychological counseling without their parents' knowledge. In this case, we suggest that they inform their parents and get their parents' consent before doing psychological counseling.
Do you promise to pack it?
We will sign an agreement during the booking process to stipulate the rights and obligations of both parties: what tourists can and can't do, what institutions and consultants can and can't provide for you. Obviously, obviously. This agreement is actually very important: it is a setting, a boundary, and a guarantee.
4. Is the appointment system strictly observed?
Usually reliable psychological counseling institutions need to make an appointment two days or even a week in advance. After making an appointment, the institution will also inform the visitors of the time, related contents and itinerary of psychological consultation in advance before formal consultation. Moreover, the relevant confidentiality regulations on visitors will appear in black and white in the document of visitors' notice, which requires the signature of visitors.
5. Is there a professional consultant screening mechanism?
In order to ensure that every consultant in our institution is professional, reliable and trustworthy, it depends not only on whether the consultant has an academic background in psychology and related majors, but also on whether the consultant constantly receives personal experience and professional supervision and training.
6. Do you have a good reputation?
You haven't been to this institution and don't know the real situation. Visitors who have been to this institution must know that they have a personal experience of its services. One or two comments don't mean anything, but if 80% or 90% people say so, their feedback is worth reference.
7. Is there a good environment?
The influence of environment on people is very important, so is psychological counseling. For example, an elegant and quiet environment can make tourists feel kind, natural and comfortable, while a dark and narrow environment may make tourists feel more depressed. Therefore, a suitable psychological counseling environment is also one of the criteria for choosing psychological counseling institutions.
