What is individual therapy?
Individual therapy (psychotherapy) is a 50 minute session with therapist and client, where collaboratively determined therapeutic goals are explored and worked towards. Psychotherapy, generally, is a talk-based therapy that operates with the intention of helping clients improve and maintain their well-being and mental health. It is often geared towards helping clients shift the thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and patterns that negatively impact their lives.

My approach to individual therapy
My approach to individual therapy is client centred, and I believe that different approaches are better suited to different individuals. I would consider my approach to individual therapy to be commonly founded in Cognitive/Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CT/CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy (PDT) principles, however I also fondly incorporate ideas found in other schools of thought when they are suited to the individual themselves or their presenting concerns.

Your first session is an intake session. Here we explore what brought you into therapy, along with some personal history, where you are now, your goals, and other details related to your individual needs and experience.
Intake sessions are a great opportunity for us to paint a picture about your goals, and I can present you with my ideas regarding helping you with those goals. Intake sessions are an important opportunity to ensure you as the client are happy with our relationship and my approach, and for me to know if I am the right fit for you based on your needs/goals.
