Types of Therapy Individual Psychotherapy

Individual Psychotherapy

Individual psychotherapy can help when life feels unbearably difficult, and it can also make a decent life even better. Consulting a psychotherapist should be as routine as developing your career, exploring a hobby or going to the gym weekly. In individual psychotherapy, just as we take care of our work life, social circle and our physical health, a vital element of self-care is devoting focused time exploring understanding our behavior, our thoughts and feelings.

Weekly therapy invites us to unpack, to share and to begin to look at things in new, powerful ways.

Issues we work with during individual psychotherapy:

Depression, sadness, malaise
Anxiety and worry
Trauma—recent trauma or the effects of older trauma that hasn’t been fully processed
Relationship and dating stress and confusion
Parenting realities, stressors, worries
Addiction and recovery
Disordered eating, early stages or stable behavior
Postpartum depression and anxiety—in both men and women
Infertility sorrow and stress
Grief and loss—parents, siblings, friends, pets
Job stress and unfulfillment
Social and coworker strife—needing new skills to get along better with others
Life changes
Existential questions that yearn to be processed
