Starting Individual therapy in Shreveport

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.

Andrew is amazing. He listens very well and even though I talk really fast and throw a lot of information at him, he is very tentative, thoughtful and takes as many notes as possible. I'm very excited for my next session!

Ella Bradford is my therapist and I could not be any more blessed and fortunate. She is amazing and there was a connection from the start with us. I look forward to our sessions together because there is not anything that I won't share with her. She has worked me through so many of my issues and continues to give her all to me to help me alleviate and improve my anxiety, depression and self destructive behavior. Many times she will email me with these enlightening articles that are relevant to our time together that day. I was overwhelmed that she would take the time to do this . I read them through and then we discuss what I have read at the next session. I have had other therapists and there is not one that has helped me as well as Ella. It is a gift to me that I am fortunate enough to have been teamed up with her. There is something to be said when you have a therapist that you can tell everything to and especially information that I have never shared with any one else. It is therapeutic and I look forward to our scheduled times together because it is very special when I can discuss any issue, problem, embarrassment, or past destructive behavior and she gets me through all of it.
