Patients can make positive changes in their lives by focusing on what may be considered basic aspects of healthy living-physical, mental, emotional, and social or spiritual. Working with a psychologist involves much more than lending an ear to someone in need. It is a privilege that people open their lives and a humbling experience to share and guide the lives of those seeking help.
