Hear from our clinicians

What is your go-to approach for individual therapy?

Rebecca: My go-to approach for helping individuals is really trying to get to know who they are and understand what they are struggling with. I use an eclectic modality, blending different therapeutic approaches based on individual needs. Basically, I use the therapy that works best for the circumstance!

Katie: My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is being client-centered, nonjudgmental, and goal-oriented. I find the best results come from consistency because it creates accountability and keeps therapy focused on reaching the goals you want to achieve with the assistance of mental health expertise.

What tools do you teach in individual therapy?

Rebecca: The coping skills and tools will vary for each individual, but in general, a mindful, intentional approach is a good place to start!

Katie: I teach the following tools in individual therapy:

  • Emotion regulation
  • Distress tolerance
  • Mindfulness
  • Interpersonal skills
  • Grounding techniques
  • Communication styles

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

Rebecca: I know a client is making progress when that internal lightbulb goes on, the client feels lighter, and there is a noticeable absence of stress in the physical appearance.

Katie: I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when I know that they are applying the skills discussed in our sessions to their everyday life. I hear it in the way they talk and demonstrate an understanding of the impact therapy has had on their life.

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

Rebecca: Clients can supplement therapy with lots of things! Social media is full of excellent ideas, and I always have resources to recommend. I always check in with clients to see what other sources they are getting information from.

Katie: Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy by practicing their skills at home, journaling, reading about their mental health condition, or watching educational videos on YouTube.

What should someone do to prepare for starting individual therapy?

Rebecca: Clients can relax! We are here to help you be your best self! But, if you want to jot down some of the things you would like to cover, that’s great also!

Katie: To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can do the following:

  • Create bullet points of topics you want to discuss
  • Identify your therapy goals beforehand
  • Know that you aren't required to talk about anything you don't want to
  • Understand that your therapist knows it takes a lot to just simply show up
  • Remember that everything in therapy is confidential

Starting Individual therapy

What is individual therapy?

Individual therapy, also known as individual-counseling, 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-counseling, 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 take most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Pricing & insurance

Our therapists accept most major insurances. We accept 585+ insurance plans, and offer self-pay options, too.

This makes Lindsey a great leader and counselor. I would refer anyone I know to Lindsey!

I’ve known Tammy Wagstaff for quite some time. She was very helpful to me for finding my strengths and improving my working and personal relationships. She is a good listener and is able to “see” my point of view . I would highly recommend this counselor

*****I have been a patient of Sandra's for nearly 2 years now and I really can't say enough good things about her work with me. She is a true Christian counselor and that was exactly the perspective I needed to guide me down the path God was trying to lead me. She definitely strengthened my faith and made many of life's big problems seem like small speed bumps when looking at the big picture!! I highly recommend Sandra Q. if you are looking for the someone who honestly cares about you and the journey you are on. Remember, there’s ultimately only one way to peace in your life, and that’s to walk daily with the Prince of Peace, Christ Jesus!! *****

The doctor (PhD) I saw for therapy decided, on the second session, to pay more attention to doing things on his phone than to listening to me. He thought he was hiding what he was doing behind his portfolio, but he was not. I could see the reflection of what he was doing, and he was looking down more than up. He was pretending to listen but didn't do a very good job of that, because when I stopped talking, he would incorrectly try to restate what I said or, make a comment on what I said which turned out to not be relevant because it was clear he wasn't listening. He did not seem to want to be there. It was a horrible experience. I called the next day to complain to the lady on the phone, and got a sincere "I'm sorry" and that's it. When I got the bill (very expensive, by the way), I have been attempting to call the office to pay it over the phone but I keep getting told that the people that do the billing are currently busy and that I should call back. It should not be that difficult for someone to take a credit card number and apply it to my bill, especially a bill I shouldn't have to pay due to horrible service. I hope the other therapists at Thriveworks are better than the one I selected, and actually have interest in helping their patients.
