What is your go-to approach for individual therapy?

I prefer a client-centered approach to therapy because I find that if clients feel that they have control over the therapy then they are more vested in the process.

What tools do you teach in individual therapy?

I teach cognitive flexibility, which involves many strategies from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy?

I know that a client is making meaningful progress because their affect during the session has changed.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement individual therapy?

Clients are encouraged to use recommended workbooks, journaling topics, and mindfulness strategies outside of their sessions.

What should someone do to prepare for starting individual therapy?

To prepare for the first session, a client can think about what they would like to change or see differently in their life.

Starting Individual therapy

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.

Can individual therapy help me?

Yes, individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, at Thriveworks can help you to improve your mental health and overall quality of life.

Is individual therapy conducted in person or online?

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.

How long does individual therapy last?

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.

How much does individual therapy cost?

At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance.

My counselor, Sheena Hahn, has been wonderful. I've been doing so much better emotionally and have learned new coping skills, as well. I'm very grateful.

I have always been skittish when it comes to therapy due to past experiences that were not always positive. I felt like I wasn't really listened to or my unique situation was taken into account; I felt like I got cookie cutter service. Melissa is not a cookie cutter therapist. She has made me so comfortable and has built a fantastic rapport between us. She reassures me on the subjects of my anxieties and confronts my problematic behaviors in a way that is kind and educates me on multiple ways I can work on them. I actually look forward to my weekly sessions with her and that is saying a lot considering how long I put off going to therapy. I wish everyone could have the experience she has provided to me.

Compassion, patience, and understanding. The ability to relate, listen, and reflect without making the patient feel small and irrelevant. I love my therapist because she actually gets me and genuinely wants me to win in life.
