My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is to help the person find the best solution for their individual problem or situation. My clients are experts on their own lives. I also incorporate in my go-to approach, which is separating the problem from the person. The problem is the problem. I enjoy helping people separate the person they are from the problem. Additionally, I enjoy helping people with universal questions concerning death, freedom, existential isolation, and meaninglessness.
I teach the following tools in individual therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when the person has an “aha” moment. Many times an “aha” moment comes from just talking out the problem.
Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy by practicing skills taught or by doing their therapeutic homework. Homework is a collaborative decision by the client and the therapist.
To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can make a list of issues you are struggling with in your life and bring them to your 1st therapy appointment. You can also imagine what it would be like if you woke up tomorrow and your issues were no longer a problem in your life.
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.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.
