Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Clinical Psychology care with Dr. Corley:
- What is the main difference between a Psychologist and a Psychiatrist?
- A psychologist, with a PhD or PsyD, specializes in psychotherapy and psychological testing. A psychiatrist, with an MD or DO, is a medical doctor who can prescribe medication. Often, they collaborate, with the psychologist providing therapy and the psychiatrist managing medication.
- What happens in a first therapy session?
- The first session is an intake to get to know you and your situation. Dr. Corley will learn about what brought you to therapy, your history, and your goals. It's also a chance for you to see if Dr. Corley is the right therapist for you, and a two-way conversation, not an interrogation.
- What is EMDR therapy?
- EMDR is a specialized therapy that helps people heal from trauma and difficult experiences. It uses bilateral stimulation, like eye movements or tapping, to help the brain process traumatic memories and lessen their emotional impact.
- Do I have to have a serious mental illness to see a psychologist?
- No. While psychologists treat mental illnesses, they also help people with everyday challenges like stress management, grief, relationship issues, and major life transitions.
- What is psychological testing used for?
- Psychological testing uses a series of standardized tests and interviews to gain a deeper understanding of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning.
