Specializace psychoterapeuta: Která metoda vyřeší tvůj problém?

When you're looking for help with your mental health, not every therapist is the same. A specializace psychoterapeuta, specifická oblast, ve které terapeut má hluboké znalosti a praxi. Also known as terapeutický přístup, it determines whether someone can help you with trauma, relationship issues, or something like borderline personality disorder. It’s not about who’s "better"—it’s about who’s right for you and your situation.

Think of it like going to a doctor. You wouldn’t see a cardiologist for a broken arm, right? The same goes for therapy. If you’re struggling with KBT, kognitivně behaviorální terapie, která se zaměřuje na přeměnu škodlivých myšlenek a chování, you need someone trained in that method—not just someone who "does therapy." KBT works well for anxiety, depression, and ADHD, and many therapists in the Czech Republic specialize in it. But if your pain comes from deep childhood wounds or emotional outbursts, trauma, hluboké psychické zranění, které zůstává uložené v těle i mysli might be the core issue. Then you’d want someone experienced in somatic approaches, EMDR, or Imago therapy—methods that don’t just talk about the past, but help you feel it safely and move through it.

And if you’re dealing with intense emotions, unstable relationships, or self-harm, you’re likely facing something like hraniční porucha osobnosti, duševní porucha, kde hlavním příznakem je neschopnost regulovat emoce. Not every therapist knows how to handle this. Only those trained in DBT—Dialectical Behavior Therapy—have the tools to help you build emotional stability without judgment. In the Czech Republic, this kind of care is still rare, so finding the right person makes a huge difference.

You don’t need to be an expert to choose wisely. Start by asking: What’s the main thing I’m struggling with? Is it panic attacks? Trauma memories? Feeling worthless? Then look for therapists who list those exact issues as their focus. Don’t settle for someone who says they "do everything." Real specialization means they’ve spent years mastering one path—not just dipping their toes in ten.

The posts below cover exactly this: what different specializations mean, who they help, and how to tell if a therapist truly knows their stuff. You’ll find real examples—from how Imago therapy fixes broken relationships, to why online therapy might not work for trauma, to what actually helps people with autism or PTSD. No fluff. Just clear, practical info to help you pick the right person—and the right path—toward feeling better.
