Individual Counseling

Consider a new conversation – one about YOU.

Imagine – being able to talk to someone where the entire focus is on you.

There are no worries about what the other person is thinking – you can relax and talk about what is on your mind at that specific moment.

The topic depends on you because this time is YOUR time, and the session is about YOU.

This conversation is free from judgment – and you are not alone on this journey to find self-awareness.

Your therapist is different from a friend.

The therapist focuses solely on your current needs and concerns, whereas a friendship requires reciprocity and functions by back-and-forth sharing. Talking to a friend means not only does your friend listen to you, but you then listen to your friend when they have concerns.

When talking to a friend, you are aware of your friend’s experiences, so you make sure you do not say or do anything that could upset or hurt your friend’s feelings. Sometimes this limits you from fully revealing what you are honestly thinking or feeling.

Talking to your therapist does not necessitate self-regulation to avoid saying something that could be hurtful or offensive. In individual counseling, there are few boundaries or limitations.

You can completely open up, explain your innermost thoughts and feelings without being judged, shamed, or made to feel uncomfortable. Your point of view is always a valid starting point.

Therapy helps get to the heart of the matter.

Your therapist has training that helps them focus on life from your perspective. This training helps them walk in “your shoes” based on your descriptions of experiences and feelings, allowing them to envision the world from your point of view.

During this “interchange,” your therapist utilizes techniques acquired from education, training, and experience to help you build skills to cope with your specific situation. Gaining the context and perspective from you allows your therapist to provide you with tools uniquely designed to help you cope with problems in your life.
