I believe therapy is integral to progress even when on medication
2. Society has become more accepting and aware of the benefits of therapy rather than conforming to its stigma
3. Psychotherapy is a  treatment that uses various methods to help someone overcome problems and grow whereas Biomedical therapy involves medication and/or medical procedures to treat psychological disorders.
4. the goal of psychodynamic/psychoanalytic therapy is to help someone become more aware of their unconsious thoughts and behaviours 
5. A theme of humanistic therapy is self-actualization]]> 2021-04-06 16:37:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388037347 I believe that therapy is great and there is too much of a stigma around it being "bad" or like people have "problems" when they go to therapy. I believe that even if you do not have a psychological illness, you should still go to therapy sometime in your life. I think that society's view of therapy has changed over the years a lot. I think that therapy used to be even more stigmatized than it is now, and although it is still stigmatized it has gotten a lot more normalized over the years. Psychotherapies are different from biomedical therapies because biomedical therapies can perscribe meds while psychotherapy is more about working with your thoughts and feelings. The goals of psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapies are to dive deep into your past trauma and see what is causing the anxiety that is "under the iceberg". The themes of humanistic therapy is active listening, insight therapy, and client centered therapy. carly_burr2 https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388039441 2021-04-06 16:37:44 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388039441 jonathanglazer1 https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388039554 1. I think therapy can be very effective. While I don't think it should always be the primary solution to a problem, from what I've heard, it normally helps patients feel better about themselves, learn reasons for their problems, and learn ways they can reduce some of their problems. The only problem with therapy is that the person receiving therapy needs to be willing to help themselves before going. 
2. Society used to view therapy as something embarrassing and made it seem like asking for help showed weakness. Nowadays, society has made it more normal for people who aren't "crazy" to go to therapy. 
3. Psychotherapies are different from biomedical therapies because a psychiatrist is trying to teach you to do things helpful in solving problems or worries. On the other hand, biomedical therapy is trying to help people with prescriptions for medication.
4. Psychodynamic therapy's goal is to uncover unconscious thoughts. Psychoanalytic therapy is similar, but involves Freud's ideology.
5. Humanistic therapy involves looking out for one's own wellbeing by working on one's self growth and personal awareness.]]> 2021-04-06 16:37:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388039554 Mia Shytle https://padlet.com/sarahsmith58/4t23yl1wmpdgf41h/wish/1388039574 1. I think therapy is a way for people to let out their emotions and to speak to someone if they are struggling. Society's viewpoint of therapy has changed to a more positive impact because we are now seeing the benefits of getting help and how it is important for almost everyone to do. Psychotherapy is a psychological treatment that employs various methods to help someone overcome personal problems or to attain personal growth. Biomedical therapy involves medication and/or medical procedures to treat psychological disorders. Psychodynamic therapy focuses on unconscious processes as they are manifested in the client's present behavior. This type of therapy helps with self awareness.  Humanistic therapy focuses on clients conscious feelings and on their taking responsibility for their own growth. Client-centered therapists use active listening to express genuineness, acceptance, and empathy.

Psychotherapists are to help obtain person growth and bio medical science involve science and medications

I think therapy is good for anyone because it allows for them to open up to someone that they don't really know, allowing the therapist to have a different and more effective way of treatment, rather than talking to a close friend or family member.
2. People in society now recognize that if they need help to go talk to someone because it cannot be fixed by just keeping it to themselves.
3. Psychotherapy  - treatment involving psychological techniques; consists of interaction between a trained therapist and someone seeking to overcome psychological difficulties or achieve personal growth.

Biomedical therapy - prescribed medications or procedures that act directly on the person’s physiology.

the energy they had previously devoted to id-ego-superego conflicts.

Psychodynamic - Therapy deriving from the psychoanalytic tradition; views individuals as responding to unconscious forces and childhood experiences, and seeks to enhance self-insight. 
5. Humanistic therapists aim to boost people’s self-fufillment by helping them grow in self-awareness and self-acceptance.
