Individual and Outpatient Therapy

Individual therapy is a process shared between a therapist and a patient. The common goal for seeking individual therapy is to inspire change and to improve the quality of life. People may benefit from therapy for help with issues that they are having trouble facing alone. Individual therapy is also referred to as talk therapy, counseling, psychotherapy, and psychosocial therapy.

Therapy can bring people a greater sense of well-being by helping to overcome obstacles. Individual therapy can help people gain new skills for dealing with difficult situations, meeting goals, and making difficult decisions in a healthy way. People in individual theory often enjoy the journey of becoming more self-aware, and many people participate in individual therapy on a long-term basis for continued self-discovery and growth.

When to Seek Therapy

It could be time to seek therapy if a situation in your life begins to feel overwhelming, or if it regularly causes stress and interferes with your functioning in your daily life. Distress can result in undesirable consequences such as negative thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and even negative bodily sensations such as fatigue or pain. Ideally, you’re able to seek therapy before such symptoms become too severe.

A good time to seek therapy is when you regularly feel unhappy or feel overwhelmed and hopeless about your life circumstances. Therapy is also helpful if you’re unable to focus at work, at school, experience addiction, or feel like hurting yourself or other people.

There are a number of reasons why people might avoid therapy. These can range from the social stigma associated with mental health care to the feelings of shame when speaking about issues from your past. Other reasons include:

• Not wanting to acknowledge that anything is wrong
• Worry that talking about your problems will not remain confidential

The National Institute of Mental Health, however, provides statistics that show that mental health issues are ubiquitous in the United States.

Up to one in five adults may be affected in some form. It’s worth noting that therapists are trained professionals who offer support and maintain confidentiality. They are accustomed to providing support to people to help work through painful or embarrassing life issues. Although social stigma about mental disorders remains an ever-present obstacle in today’s society, more and more people are becoming comfortable with discussing their mental health options with people they trust.

People sometimes feel overwhelmed in their lives and need someone to talk to. There are many factors that could contribute to this feeling, some of which are: stress, bullying, parents, depression, and other things that could be going on within their individual lives.

Adolescents sometimes feel as though no one is listening to them, or one will understand what they are thinking. They feel like those that know them will judge them for speaking their minds.

Adults face daily challenges that can make them feel defeated. Stress, marital issues, juggling too many hats, and other daily experiences all impact mental stability.

Our outpatient therapy program is for children, adolescents, and adults.  Individual sessions are available based on your individual needs and desires.
