What is your go-to approach for individual therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is to listen to the reason they came to therapy and address those issues. I find the best benefit is helping a client with an issue affecting their current life because they will benefit from gaining back stability in their day-to-day life and can then move on to other things.

What tools do you teach in individual therapy?

I teach the following tools in individual therapy:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy involves understanding foundational beliefs learned as a child, rules you made for yourself with those beliefs, recognizing that automatic thoughts are usually false, and learning how to change the distorted thinking to improve self-esteem and behaviors.
  • Reality testing is looking at the facts of a situation and removing your own perspective to discover the truth.
  • Mindfulness exercises help the client stay in the present moment to decrease anxiety and depression.
  • Dialectical behavior therapy helps people with intense emotions, control, and understand emotions.

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 are completing treatment recommendations such as assignments and practicing the tools they learn in sessions in their own environment.

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

Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy with reading material given and/or recommended to them in treatment, journaling, and doing an activity they enjoy.

What should someone do to prepare for starting individual therapy?

To prepare for your first individual therapy session, remind yourself you are seeing a professional who is here to help you, and the best results come when you are honest. I also suggest sharing any concerns you have with the therapist.

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.
