There are many figures that deal with mental well -being. But there are differences to consider before turning to one of them. “Coach and Counselor They are two forms of support very similar but with some specificities. First of all, it must be said that both these ways of accompanying the person To date in Italy they are not recognized in legal level as professions And, therefore, they are in no way regulated. There are no specific professional registers that regulate the action of those who make use of this title “, explains Dr. Grampa.
The expert then analyzes every figure: “Coaching is an activity aimed at personal developmentborn in the sports field with the aim of Increase the performance of athletes And, then, it also spread to other contexts (health, work, parenting). Counseling Instead it is a form of support aimed at people who find themselves in a situation of impasse compared to their personal growth. This support aims to accompany people to develop all the necessary skills to self -regulate and face the challenges of life independently».
Otherwise, Psychologists and Psychotherapists I am legally recognized health professionals, With precise courses of studies to be addressed, a state exam to be taken to access professional practice and regional reference regional registers and which monitor the practice of their members. As for professional specifications, “the psychologistthrough the use of cognitive and intervention tools, carries out prevention, diagnosis, qualification-rehabilitation and support activities. The psychotherapist Instead, he obtained a specific professional training in psychology or medicine, through specialization courses that allow you to learn Personal care techniques and pathologies of which it could be a bearer».
“Psychotherapists belong to many different theoretical addresses (cognitive-behavioral, systemic, dynamic …) and among these guidelines there is also that psychoanalytic. Therefore, it psychoanalyst is a psychotherapist who has chosen this specific person in person».
Mental health, which professional to contact? How to choose?
“The criterion of choice must be established based on the reason for the request for help and the objective you want to achieve,” explains Dr. Grampa. “Coach and Counselor can have their effectiveness in accompanying and support paths aimed at a concrete goal and in the absence of psychic symptoms or suffering. The psychologist and psychotherapiston the other hand, have as professional specification intervention in conditions of suffering, discomfort, pain and psychopathology».
Mental Coach & Co: When asking for help from a mental health professional
«He has been talking abundantly for years of health and mental well -being and the use of professional figures is increasingly widespread, especially among young people. Sure some taboos on a social level, but we are witnessing an increasingly aware appeal to mental health professionals “, continues the expert. Which also explains how to understand when you need help and why it is important not to underestimate the support that an expert figure can bring in case of need.
“When one’s everyday life begins to be disturbed by a symptom, an effort, by a difficulty in terms of thought, emotional or relationalthat’s the time to ask for help. Professionals, however, can also work in a preventive perspective, intervening so that inconvenience does not arise. Just think, for example, of prevention courses on various issues in schools or companies “, continues Dr. Grampa. “The help of the professional should not be underestimated because the risk is to neglect one’s health condition Or not to take care adequately of a difficulty or discomfort that could hardly improve alone ».
Inconvenience and ailments that we struggle to recognize
Not all mental health disorders are the same. «Undoubtedly there are inconveniences that are socially more supported and less stigmatized. For example, The stress linked to work, some forms of anxiety related to school or professional competitiveness. But also some ways of being particularly impregnated with aggression in the world of entertainment or on social media “, concludes Dr. Grampa.
