Psychological and physical health are closely interconnected. Emotional distress can sometimes contribute to persistent physical symptoms that significantly affect daily functioning and quality of life, even when medical investigations do not fully explain their severity.
Therapy helps individuals better understand the relationship between emotional and physical health, reduce symptom-related distress, strengthen coping strategies, and improve overall functioning while working alongside appropriate medical care where needed.
