Psychology is the science of how people think, feel and act. Three circles connect: THOUGHT (“I will fail”) → EMOTION (anxiety) → BEHAVIOR (avoidance) — and back: action changes thought. That is the CBT triangle — cognitive behavioral therapy, the best-studied method. Psychology is not “reading people” but understanding mechanics: why do I get angry, why do I procrastinate, why am I afraid. Self-observation is the first counselor skill.
- ●Thought journal 5 min/day = basic self-observation exercise
- ●Emotion is a signal, not a command: you can feel without acting
- ●Psychology ≠ psychiatry: one teaches, one treats illness
🧠 In Germany, psychological counselors may work without a medical degree — but psychotherapy (treating illness) requires the Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie license or clinical training. The boundary protects clients.
