Individual therapy FAQs

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?

Everything syncs well with reminders and the quality of care provided by my therapist.

Finding a couple's therapist who accepts our insurance and meets both my husband's and my needs has been difficult. Even when we found a local therapist office that accepts our insurance and that we liked, many in-person therapists do not permit couples to use their insurance. As a social worker, I understand why—it's because only one person in the couple is billed, which labels them as the one needing support in the relationship. However, for us, affordability is more important. If the couple agrees to those terms, it shouldn't matter, and Thriveworks allows couples to make that choice. They also offer many options, making it easier for my husband and me to find a therapist who fits our needs in terms of skills, modalities, and schedule. Scheduling individual appointments is already challenging, but finding a time that works for two working parents is even harder. With Thriveworks, we found someone who meets all these requirements and was a great fit. I'm very grateful for this platform and the flexibility it provides for real people seeking support.
