Individual therapy FAQs

What is individual therapy?

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.

How does individual therapy work?

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.

Currently, it feels like talking to my therapist is like talking to a very experienced, specialized medical doctor. She asks precise questions to pinpoint my emotional /psychological triggers so that I can work to change them. The sessions feel invaluable for me to reach my mental health goals.

Scheduling online is generally very easy but it would be nice to be able to book future appointments with my provider right from the portal instead of clicking a link from an email. When I try to book again from the portal, I’m always shown different providers in the area but not mine. My provider is excellent, and I feel much better overall after our sessions!
