My go-to approach in individual therapy is to focus on start and endpoints. I find this to be helpful as people can benefit from having a specific direction to move in.
I teach the following tools:
I know a client is making meaningful progress as they become closer to achieving their goals.
Clients can supplement their time in therapy by using their coping skills and reflecting on experiences at home.
To prepare for our first session, you can make a list of things that you would like to work on together.
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.
