Individual Counseling

Individual Counseling

In individual therapy, we work together, one-to-one, in a safe, accepting environment. We address personal issues using multiple techniques to develop awareness, self-reflection, and coping strategies with the purpose of personal development, symptom reduction, hope, and healing.

Techniques used may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Faith-based/Christian Counseling, and Psychodynamic Therapy.

An individual can expect to begin our work by completing an intake packet of information. In the initial session, we develop our professional working relationship as an individual and therapist. We discuss intake information, goals, and treatment plan. After that, we work together towards meeting goals using various therapeutic and faith-based techniques.

I believe in an interactive, hands-on approach to therapy. We address issues using multiple techniques. You will have an opportunity to practice what we discussed in the session by completing exercises, activities, or handouts. I might suggest a book or ask you to work through an assigned workbook. Each session will begin with a brief discussion about what you learned, experienced, or insight gained.
