Psychotherapy helps you better understand your emotions, fears, and thoughts, serving as a genuine support in combating anxiety, chronic stress, insomnia, or harmful habits (such as bruxism, smoking, or eating disorders).
You don’t have to “have a serious problem” to talk to someone.
In dentistry, psychotherapy assists with dental anxiety, teeth grinding, or managing the stress that influences physical health.
When psychotherapy can be useful:
- You have a fear of the dentist or constantly postpone treatments;
- You grind your teeth or clench your jaw;
- You feel overwhelmed, anxious, or constantly tired;
- You have sleep disorders or panic attacks;
- Your child has adaptation or expression difficulties.
Services included in psychotherapy:
- Counseling for anxiety and fear of the dentist;
- Therapy for stress and emotion management;
- Support for sleep disorders, bruxism, or nervous tics;
- Intervention in eating disorders or compulsive behavior;
- Support for children with emotional or social delays.
Ignoring mental health can lead to:
- somatization (pain without a physical cause);
- harmful habits (teeth grinding, nail biting, smoking);
- impacting personal relationships and quality of life.
