What is Individual Therapy?
Individual therapy, also known as one-on-one therapy or psychotherapy, is a collaborative process between a therapist and a client aimed at facilitating personal growth, understanding, and healing. This type of therapy provides a safe and confidential environment where individuals can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with the guidance of a trained professional. The primary goal is to help clients understand and address their personal challenges, develop effective coping strategies, and enhance their overall well-being.
