I am a wife of a good hearted man and a mother of three incredible adults. I cuss on occasion, and have a lot of tattoos. I have experienced enough life to be dangerous and continue to be amazed by the resilience of humans. I believe "what is in us is for us" and the body has the answers to our physical, emotional, and psychological problems. Read more

What is your go-to approach for individual therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is cognitive behavioral therapy. I find the best benefits in CBT because it helps to clarify the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and is effective with 85% of our population. It also is an easily-manualized treatment which means the client can complete homework for the next session.

What tools do you teach in individual therapy?

I teach the following tools in individual therapy:

  • Mindfulness: Awareness of thoughts and feelings to be in the present moment
  • Relaxation techniques/breathing techniques: To provide a focus for mindfulness and emotional regulation
  • Self-compassion techniques: Being more gentle with oneself
  • Seeking safety: Modulized treatment for PTSD/addiction
  • Anger management: Emotional regulation
  • TF-CBT: Trauma treatment for children ages 3-18

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

I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when they ask to move to every 2 weeks or discontinue services at the completion of the treatment series.

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

Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy with education, completing homework assignments, practicing skills learned in sessions, and applying the lessons learned in-session to everyday life.

What should someone do to prepare for starting individual therapy?

To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can be open to learning new skills to deal with issues, be flexible in your diagnosis beliefs, and be as honest as you can with a stranger you are inviting into your 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.

I thought the experience went well. I'm still new to Thriveworks and cannot really give honest feedback yet. I thought the Psychiatrist that I met with was very professional. She spoke like a subject matter expert and I was very pleased with my appointment with her. She changed my medications without me asking which I have been trying to do for a while now with the VA. Very pleased with the appointment.
