Individual therapy is completely unique - it’s tailored to your needs
Sometimes therapy is narrowly focused on a single issue - we meet for a few times to identify the issue, create a strategy, and work on improving your situation.
Other times therapy is a journey of discovery, where the struggle that brought you to therapy leads to larger issues or separate issues - our therapy sessions can evolve to address your unique struggles.
