Individual Therapy
for Men and Women
Therapy offers a confidential space to talk through personal struggles, develop new perspectives, build emotional resilience and pursue positive change.
Individual therapy provides the opportunity to unload the stress, worries, concerns and burdens that have accumulated over weeks, months or even years. Therapy is protected by strict policies of privacy and confidentiality, which are fundamental to creating a trusted environment for honest self-disclosure. The therapist gives insights into the client’s situation that provides new perspectives and renewed motivation to move forward. Healthy thinking patterns and emotional management techniques are taught to reduce and eliminate nonproductive and destructive habits and behaviors. Areas of individual treatment include stress management, anger management, emotional management, procrastination, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, obsessive compulsive disorder, discouragement, self-confidence, depression and addictions.
What to Expect
If it’s your first time pursuing therapy, you may be hesitant to commit to the process. New and unfamiliar experiences often create uncertainty.
However, therapy (commonly referred to as counseling) isn’t new or unusual. Counseling has existed as long as humans have walked the earth. Whether it’s from a friend, relative, mentor or religious figure, people look to fellow human beings for support.
A licensed therapist provides professional, specialized guidance and interventions.
The initial session involves gathering information about current and past struggles. Clients leave the first session with a preliminary action plan and homework exercises (homework is given after all sessions).
The second session involves a review of homework, further assessment of unproductive thinking patterns and education on developing healthy perceptions of self, others and circumstances.
By the third meeting, clients often begin feeling more confident and equipped to address the deeper (root) issues that are fueling unwanted emotions and behaviors. It is recommended that clients complete 3 consecutive weekly sessions to quickly facilitate change and generate hope that things can improve. Sessions will then be scheduled as needed.
