Common approaches to Individual therapy

Camila Giraldo

Hear from Camila Giraldo, Licensed Independent Social Worker - Clinical Practice (LISW-CP)

View Camila Giraldo's profile

What is your go-to approach for individual therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is to help them understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a safe space. I prefer CBT and person-centered approaches, as clients are able to feel heard, express their thoughts and emotions, and learn practical tools that can provide symptom relief.

My approach to individual therapy is to identify the areas of concern that allow the client to take the lead and for me to provide the evidence-based therapy required to reach the targeted goals.

What tools do you teach in individual therapy?

I teach clients behavior activation techniques, grounding exercises, cognitive challenging, and healthy coping skills, to name some, to help them process their thoughts and emotions and cope during difficult times.

I teach the following tools in individual therapy: stress management, emotional management, anger management, problem-solving and decision-making, communication skills, trauma processing, improvement of relationships, time management, parenting, and a lot of other approaches.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy?

I know clients are making meaningful progress in individual therapy when they feel more hopeful and motivated and start taking practical steps toward creating the life they want for themselves.

I know a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when symptoms of stress are significantly reduced, clients self-report progress toward therapy goals, or they achieved at least 75% of their objectives.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement individual therapy?

Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy with exercise, mindfulness techniques, and social engagement.

Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy by following the therapy plan and paying attention to their time and energy as well as two major points, which are self-care and healthy relationships.

What should someone do to prepare for starting individual therapy?

To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can create a list of your current areas of concern and things you would like to achieve in therapy.

To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can just complete the intake forms and make sure you know the office location or the Zoom link to your virtual session, and of course show up!

Starting Individual therapy

What is individual therapy?

Individual therapy, also known as individual-counseling, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.

How does individual therapy work?

Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.

Can individual therapy help me?

Yes, individual therapy, also known as individual-counseling, at Thriveworks can help you to improve your mental health and overall quality of life.

Is individual therapy conducted in person or online?

Individual therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does individual therapy last?

The duration of your individual therapy sessions will vary. The decision on the number and frequency of sessions is typically collaboratively determined by the client and therapist.

How much does individual therapy cost?

At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.

Talk Therapy in Greenville, SC – Counselors and Therapists in Greenville, SC

Talk therapy has many benefits. The conversations between you and a licensed counselor are different from those you’ll have with a trusted friend. The value of speaking with talk therapist is not greater than speaking with a friend – it’s just different. And that’s because the purpose is different. If you think you could benefit from a professional’s help, reach out to Thriveworks Greenville today to schedule an appointment and get started.

How Can Talk Therapy Help?

Talk therapy is helpful for many types of mental health issues, including the following:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Stress management
  • Panic disorders
  • Relationship issues
  • Marriage counseling
  • Divorce recovery
  • Grief and loss
  • Life coaching
  • Peak performance
  • … and much more!

Your therapist will help you explore thoughts and behaviors that are in conflict with each other. You’ll gain insight regarding negative or false beliefs that steal your happiness and prevent you from reaching your potential. You’ll spend time discussing your past and how it affects you today. Talk therapy may reveal patterns that keep you from engaging in meaningful relationships. You may even discover your authentic self. You might be able to do this with a friend; but if you’re like most people, it’s not likely. Your friends are probably not therapists, so let them be your friends and save the hard topics for talk therapy.

Scheduling Talk Therapy at Thriveworks Greenville

Greenville Talk Therapy exists to provide meaningful and productive care for people who want to actively engage in their mental health support. Greenville talk therapists partner with clients to set personal goals for therapy. You don’t have to try to figure things out on your own. Let a Thriveworks Talk Therapist help you understand the hurt you’ve experienced in the past, the issues that trouble you today, and make a plan for what concerns you about the future.

Just give us a call and get connected with an experienced, qualified, and licensed mental health counselor. Talk therapy is covered by insurance, so it may be more affordable that you thought.

Kathleen Horn was so understanding and non-judgmental. She was really nice to work with and had a way of making me look at and think about things differently. She worked with me on coping skills and changing my thoughts so I could change behaviors and feel better. She helped me through a tough time and now I feel a lot less depressed and anxious. I would go to her again. Thank you for all of your help!

LaKimberly Dowdell was an excellent counselor. She was a great listener, while at the same time knowing precisely the right moment to provide her expert knowledge. She is very personable and caring, yet knows what to say to support the change you are seeking. I highly recommend her.

The only reason why my Family stopped going to see Ms. Dowdell is because I had to change jobs and at the time my schedule would not allow us to continue services. She made sure my Family had a great transition to another Provider and that we had continuity of care. Now that my schedule has a little more flexibility, I am very thankful to be able to continue services with Ms. Dowdell who still remembers my Family’s history like we were just in her office yesterday (over 1 year ago)! She listens intently and never puts you down, and helps you understand your emotions and what issues and problems you may be going through in a way that you can understand but clearly. Personally, I deal with a lot of stress and being pulled in a lot of directions, and would when I felt as though my words did not make sense coming out of my mouth, she would know how to piece together what I was saying and not make me feel bad for being too vulnerable and made my therapy sessions a safe space to learn and grow from them. I am forever grateful for how she is helping my Family accept what we need to accept, change what we need to change, and heal from the root of our wounds; wounds I did not know were there. I highly recommend her.

Emily was the first therapist I had ever gone to after thinking for a long time it would be good for me. I was stuck in a rut and repeating patterns and using coping skills that were no longer helpful to me. She helped me work through many of my personal issues, some which had been stewing since childhood. She always knew when to push and when to back off if a certain issue was too sensitive at that time. She is honest yet kind. I was sad to see her move out of Chicago but I will forever be grateful for the tools she helped me to develop for dealing with the sh**show that life can be sometimes. She helped me get back into alignment with who I really am as a person. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is struggling or even just looking for a little more balance in their lives.

Emily has been an amazing help in my life for the past couple of years. She helped me see my worth when I couldn't see it myself. She helped me with my grief after losing my father. She helped me overcome my addictions with drugs and alcohol. She taught me to be kind to myself and that everyday is not gonna be an amazing day and that's okay. She helped me accept that I don't have to know the outcomes to big life changes that it's best to go with the flow, wear life like a loose garment. Emily is such and amazing counselor and I am forever grateful for everything she helped me see. Emily cares tremendously and I know deep in my heart she is gonna continue being the sunshine in many more client lives. Emily has made a huge impact on my life and I don't think I will ever find a counselor as down to earth as she is. Chicago misses you already!!! :) :) :)
