Individual Therapy

In individual therapy sessions we will collaboratively create a tailored treatment program specific to your needs and goals. Speaking with an objective person that also has extensive training and knowledge about your psychology and past can help you better understand yourself, who you want to be in relationships and who you want to be in relationships with.

In our therapy sessions, you will gain enhanced coping skills for challenging work and relationship situations, improved clarity about future goals, reduced negative self-talk, and you will finally let go of your past family and relationship trauma.

One of the most important aspects of individual therapy is building healthy self-care routines and habits that will help you self-soothe and self-regulate when you are in distress. At Root To Rise Therapy we believe in providing care for the care-taker— many of our clients are “care-giving types”, natural nurturers, and people-pleasers, who are highly focused on the comfort of the people around them and meeting the needs of others while neglecting their own needs. We help our clients learn how to take care of themselves in order to take care of others better.

 

In therapy, you will learn how to build a personalized self-care plan so that you have a toolbox that will serve you for the rest of your life.

 

Frequent areas of focus include:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Relationship and Marital Issues

  • Singles and dating

  • Break-ups and heartbreak

  • Divorce/Affairs

  • Assertiveness

  • Mindfulness

  • Grief and Loss

  • Life Transitions

  • Feeling "stuck"

  • Addiction and Codependency

 

Clients often arrive on our couch when they are ready to break out of their unhealthy patterns in life and in love, and take steps towards change.  If you are going through a life transition, feeling stuck, or lost in love; if you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or relationship distress; suffered a loss or illness of a loved one, a divorce or a breakup, therapy will provide a warm and transformational space to dislodge unhealthy coping patterns and create new ways of thriving in our lives.

Our guarantee to you is that we will meet you where you are, and provide a supportive and comforting space. Together we can navigate this transition in a tailored approach so that you can be happy and thriving in your life and release painful patterns from your past.

 
“ People ask me if counseling is helpful. I go because it’s a place where I can cry, express my feelings, and nobody judges me. It’s my outlet. I think this is what I needed in my life for a long time.”
