Our experts offer personalized care for lasting mental health recovery.
Individual therapy is a form of psychotherapy conducted on a one-to-one basis. A patient meets with a therapist in their office or connects with them online to discuss their emotions, concerns, and future plans, gain the capacity to communicate clearly to be able to build meaningful and lasting relationships, and get rid of the manifestations of a mental health disorder at any stage of its development.
One of the main advantages of individual therapy is that it can help any person no matter what they are struggling with – it is a big part of trauma-informed care, it guides people to wellness during the course of mood disorder treatment, and it can be combined with family therapy if you want to show your loved ones what can be done to support you as you are dealing with your mental health issues.
There is a reason personal counseling is recommended as the first therapeutic approach for every person who seeks psychological help. A therapist will assess your condition, advise you on the next steps to take, and dispel your fears if you are worried and anxious about upcoming events and major life changes.
Personal therapy is an excellent solution for any individual who wants to maintain their privacy. Due to the stigmatization of mental health treatment in general, many people are reluctant to attend therapy sessions with other individuals present in the room – it is understandable to prefer to keep certain matters confidential and open up to a therapist instead of talking to other people in group therapy. If you are looking for domestic violence treatment or PTSD treatment so that you can finally address the most painful and deeply personal memories and circumstances that define your present, one-on-one therapy is the right place for you.
Spend the first session asking questions you have in your mind whether you want to know more about the experience of the therapist and their credentials or if you are interested in therapy modalities they have in-depth knowledge of. Remember that it will be your decision to continue to work with the individual in question - you need to feel comfortable and secure in the presence of a therapist.
As for the things you get to discuss in the office of a therapist, it is up to you to choose what to talk about. Unlike other forms of therapy, personal counseling gives you an opportunity to have the undivided attention of the mental health professional so you can move at your own pace and talk about different aspects of your life that require improvement.
A therapist will offer you to try various techniques and exercises under their supervision and on your own between the appointments. It is a good idea to journal your therapy experience so that you can analyze your progress together and notice if your behavioral patterns change for the better or worse.
While the treatment plan will contain a list of therapy objectives you want to accomplish alongside a timeline of treatment, either of these details can be altered in case there are underlying issues you managed to identify with your therapist or you are able to eliminate certain symptoms of your mental illness faster than expected.

Typically, the most effective way to eliminate the symptoms of a mental health disorder is to combine solo therapy with prescription drugs that will help the patient get rid of the physical and mental manifestations of the mental illness. You will be advised by a therapist and psychiatrist in case your ADHD treatment or depression treatment can be improved by carefully chosen medication.
One of the main benefits of individual therapy is its versatility and flexibility – any mental health issue can be addressed with a therapist in a confidential setting. Bipolar disorder treatment, insomnia treatment, and anger management treatment will include private conversations with a mental health professional.
