Jaelyn Aragon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who specializes in working with children, teens, and adults who are struggling to cope with issues related to addiction, depression, anxiety, undeveloped coping skills, chronic illness, family conflict, trauma, PTSD, sexual or physical abuse, parenting difficulties, and much more.
Jaelyn works from a person-centered approach that borrows strategies from narrative therapy and insights from an existential lens. She knows that the client is an expert on themselves, but may need guidance from a counselor to help navigate the trials and tribulations of life. Jaelyn’s journey into counseling began with her work at Safe Passage Children’s Advocacy Center, where she volunteered for over two years. The experience taught her the value of meeting a client at whatever place or mindset they are in, and she learned how to respond to a range of emotional situations while being an advocate for the client’s best interest.
Jaelyn knows that everyone carries experiences that help to shape who they are. She is devoted to helping people process those experiences. Reach out to schedule a session with her, where you'll work together as a team to start achieving your personal goals.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is to always remain client-centered. Your goals are my goals for you, too. We are here to work together toward the best, most attainable outcomes for you. Therapeutic rapport is one of the best predictors of success, meaning the success of any approaches I love to use (CBT, DBT, Existentialism) stems from remaining client-centered.
While this list is by no means exhaustive, I do focus on teaching the following tools in individual therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when the concerns that initially brought them in no longer have such a profound impact on their day-to-day life. This is not to say that certain events do not leave a lasting impact, but rather that the client has found a way to accommodate those experiences into how they want their life to look. Additionally, a client is making progress when they are able to work on other areas of their life that perhaps were inaccessible due to the intensity of the initial concern.
In their personal time, clients can supplement individual therapy by creating or participating in environments that promote the kind of wellness and healing they strive for. You are a reflection of the people and environments you surround yourself with!
To prepare for your first individual therapy session, all you need is to schedule the appointment! Sometimes, just starting therapy and showing up is half the work, and clients do not need to be stressed about being “prepared” for a first appointment. Try to lean on a support person who knows you will be starting therapy and who you can check in with after your first session.
Individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.
Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.
Yes, individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, at Thriveworks can help you to improve your mental health and overall quality of life.
Individual therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of your individual therapy sessions will vary. The decision on the number and frequency of sessions is typically collaboratively determined by the client and therapist.
