In both Brazilian and American contexts, 'therapeutic process' is a clinical term commonly used in psychology, psychiatry, and counseling. In Brazil, there is growing recognition of mental health treatment, and the term is increasingly used in healthcare discussions. In the USA, the term is standard in mental health professional discourse and is often discussed as a collaborative journey between therapist and client. Cultural attitudes toward therapy vary, with therapy being more normalized in the USA than in many parts of Brazil, though this is gradually changing.
