My approach for helping people in individual therapy is facilitating awareness of their own thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, clients gain self-awareness and are able to gain more control behaviorally and emotionally.
In individual therapy, I teach mindfulness, self-care, self-compassion, emotional regulation and balancing out logic with emotion. For anxiety disorders, I teach grounding and containment skills as well as management skills to calm the nervous system.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when they are consistent with self-care, self-compassion and emotional regulation, and there is a decrease in debilitating symptoms.
Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy with mental and emotional growth through reading books, listening to podcasts and journaling.
To prepare for your first individual therapy session, make sure to complete all necessary forms and start a journal documenting physical and emotional symptoms that you notice.
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.
