How Does Individual Therapy Work?
Individual psychotherapy sessions allow confidentially talking through problems or situations with an experienced, trained professional. Individual therapy allows both therapist and client to focus on each other, finding problems, building a rapport, and working together to solve the client’s issue.
Psychotherapy is not the only form of mental health treatment. It’s often used in conjunction with other types of treatments, including family therapy or substance abuse counseling. Psychoanalysis and cognitive-behavioral therapy are two common types of psychotherapy that differ in duration. Psychoanalysis is a talking therapy that can take months or even years, while CBT can be completed in only a few sessions.
