Individual
Counseling

Individual therapy is a type of psychotherapy where a trained professional helps an individual navigate personal challenges. This effective approach addresses various emotional issues and mental health conditions, and can improve or manage symptoms that affect well-being.

**How Individual Therapy Work?**

During therapy sessions, you have the opportunity to confidentially discuss problems or situations with a professional. While it may not resolve all issues, it equips you with coping strategies.

Individual therapy is useful for a range of situations that can cause stress, anger, grief, or conflict. In a comfortable and private setting, you and your therapist will explore important topics, including:

- Expression of thoughts and emotions
- Behavior patterns
- Problem-solving
- Conflict resolution
- Strengths and weaknesses

Individual therapy can be short-term, focusing on immediate issues, or long-term, addressing more complex challenges. The number of sessions and appointment frequency will be tailored to your needs and the therapist's guidance.

A mental health evaluation offers professionals insight into your feelings, thoughts, and memory. This evaluation not only identifies concerns but also checks for co-occurring disorders. There’s no need to feel anxious about the evaluation, as it helps the professionals and you understand your needs and create a suitable plan.

Some symptoms to watch for include:

- Noticeable decline in functioning at work, school, or daily activities
- Changes in sleep or appetite
- Difficulties with memory and other cognitive tasks
- Feelings of disconnection from your environment
- Loss of interest or apathy
- Mood swings
- Paranoia or fear of others
- Unusual behavior
- Withdrawal from previously enjoyed activities
