Individual therapy is a collaborative process between you and your therapist. People seek therapy for help with issues that are hard to manage alone and have become obstacles to their well-being and optimal function. People who feel ambivalent or conflicted about their circumstances or simply want to engage in a process of self-exploration may find therapy helpful. Some people engage in therapy for a brief amount of time, others stay in therapy longer. Many people find therapy an enjoyable process and a beneficial exploration of their life circumstances.
