"Psychotherapy refers to planned and structured interventions aimed at influencing behaviour, mood and emotional patterns of reaction to different stimuli through verbal and non-verbal psychological means. Psychotherapy does not comprise the use of any biochemical or biological means." - World Health Organization.

The following is my interpretation (Lee Park) as a clinician of 15 years experience is that this definition means that psychotherapy is a way to help people by talking and interacting with them, using the technology of language, attachment, relational guidance:
Here's a breakdown:
"Planned and structured interventions": Psychotherapy is not casually chatting.
Psychotherapy is a deliberate clinical process based in evidence practice.
"Influencing behaviour, mood and emotional patterns": The end goal is to help motivate change, in a person's thoughts, feelings, and reactions.
"Verbal and non-verbal psychological means": The tools used are communication, interaction, the relationship between the clinican and client and the synergy they create—words, actions, and the professional relationship itself.
"Does not comprise... any biochemical or biological means": This clearly distinguishes psychotherapy from medical treatments like prescription medication. Psychotherapy uses the client's innate resources to heal their own symptoms from understanding the context of how things began, developed, how they coped from stressors, where they believe they can change, to follow through in this change.
