Contextual therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps people change how they look at things. This type of therapy focuses on the idea that our current problems are caused by the way we look at things in the context of our lives. It looks at how your current view of the world, your relationships and yourself affect the way you approach life and try to solve problems. Through this type of therapy, a therapist can help you learn how to look at things in a different way so you can be more successful in life.
