How does this work?
- After adding the Counseling ticket to the cart, you will then be asked to write the names and the emails of the recipients of this ticket upon checkout.
- Once payment has been made, we will then send the tickets to the emails of the recipients and also send to you the order receipt and the official receipt. To double-check, you can ask the recipients if they have already received the tickets through email. They can also check it in their “promotions tab” or spam if they don’t see it in their primary inbox.
- If they decide to use the ticket, they will simply visit our website at www.mspychservices.com and click “book an appointment” to book a counseling session. They will choose a counselor or a psychologist, and also their preferred date.
- Once the booking has been submitted, the recipient receives a confirmation email containing the booking details and also the link to the video conference (e.g. Zoom or Google Meet) where he/she will meet his/her counselor.
- When it is already time for their counseling session, the recipient will simply click the link so they can begin their online counseling session with his or her counselor.

How many sessions will it take for one to recover from personal or mental problems?
It really depends on several factors: the gravity of the problem, therapy goals, the recipient’s commitment, and cooperation. If it is a mental health disorder, it might take more sessions compared to personal problems that are not diagnosed as mental disorders. Usually, 8-10 sessions for mental disorders and 3-8 sessions for non-mental disorders.
How often should the sessions be?
It depends on the therapy goals and the gravity of the problem. The usual frequency is once a week with booster sessions (i.e. twice a month, once a month, 4 times a year).
What happens during the first session?
The first session is usually used for the counselor to assess the problem thoroughly, to get to know about the recipient and his/her concern, to prepare the right diagnosis if necessary, and to help the recipient establish therapy goals.
What happens in the succeeding sessions?
The recipient and the counselor will work together to achieve your therapy goals until the recipient recovers from his/her problems.

Can a person really get better with counseling?
Yes of course. All mental disorders and personal problems can be resolved with counseling/psychotherapy. The root cause of personal suffering is usually psychological and existential. With counseling, we become aware of our problems, where they are coming from, and how to manage them.
What is the difference between counseling, psychotherapy, and life coaching?
Counseling is a general term that involves a client seeking professional help from an expert to resolve a problem, in this case, personal problems. Psychotherapy is a form of counseling intended for people with mental disorders or deeper mental health concerns. Life coaching, on the other hand, is for people who want to develop personally even without personal problems. Here at M Psych, our counselors are capable of both psychotherapy and life coaching.
What is the general goal of counseling?
The general goal of counseling is to help the recipient solve their own problems and train them to be their own counselor.
