Individual therapy, also known as psychotherapy or counseling, is a form of mental health treatment where a person works one-on-one with a trained mental health professional who genuinely cares about your well-being. In this one-on-one setting you and your therapist will join together to begin uncovering the obstacles that lie between your present state and feelings of well-being.
During each therapy session, your therapist will attentively listen, ask questions, and provide you with guidance to help you gain insight into emotions and behaviors, develop coping skills, and work through life challenges. Through the safety of the therapeutic relationship, you will nurture your self-awareness and self-compassion, bear witness to your felt suffering, and celebrate your reflections and growth.
Individual therapy is not about fitting you into a predefined mold; instead, it’s a customized approach that caters to your unique needs and circumstances. Whether you’re facing difficult life transitions, struggling with anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns, or simply seeking greater self-awareness and understanding, individual therapy can be a powerful tool to support you on your path to healing and happiness.
