Psychology literally means Soul knowledge. (Psyche). Modern definitions of Psychology call it the science of behaviour, mind, brain and emotions. Psychological clinicians help treat psychological problems.

Counselling is the art and science of actively listening to, deeply hearing, dynamically reflecting on and appropriately advising people about the problems and challenges they bring to counselling. An old saying is, "A problem shared is a problem halved". Just talking out the problem can make a big difference in the size of the problem for a person, getting the feelings out and by seeing things more clearly and getting a better perspective on things. Counselling is most useful in assisting clients to discharge emotional tension, enabling greater clarity.
