What is Individual Therapy?
Individual psychotherapy is one-on-one therapy led by a skilled therapist. Through conversations, exercises, and assignments, your therapist will learn who you are, where you struggle, and what you need to take the next step.
At Healthy Minds NYC, we offer individual therapy for clients seeking to examine their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. All of our individual counselors share one goal: to help their clients lead happier, more fulfilling lives.
Personalized Support and Guidance
At Healthy Minds, our therapists understand that there are many ways to achieve a goal. That’s why they personalize their approach to fit each individual client. The team selects therapeutic techniques and methods tailored to help you with your specific challenges. You’ll always be involved in the conversation about how we approach your care.
Confidential and Safe Space
A key aspect of individual therapy is creating a confidential and secure environment where you can express yourself freely, without fear of judgment or consequences. Your therapist will work to build trust, providing a safe space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. This sense of safety promotes deeper self-awareness and personal growth.
Collaborative Relationship
Individual therapy focuses on building a collaborative relationship between you and your therapist. Together, you'll actively shape your therapeutic journey by identifying goals, gaining insights, and implementing practical strategies for positive change.
What is the 2-year rule for Therapists?
The "2-year rule" typically refers to a guideline in some states or professional organizations that recommends a therapist should not work with a client for more than two years without reevaluating the therapeutic process. It's meant to ensure that therapy remains productive and that clients are making progress toward their goals.
How do I see a therapist in-person?
You don’t need to be suffering from a specific condition to benefit from individual therapy at Healthy Minds NYC. Counseling also benefits those who want to learn how to manage difficult situations or get help achieving a goal.
Our team has experience working with New Yorkers who face unique challenges specific to life in our fast-paced city. Our clients often come to us with concerns about financial stress, career frustration, and even making friends in adulthood.
If you have any concern that is making it difficult to lead the life you want, you are worthy and deserving of help. Begin by pursuing individual counseling services in NYC and booking a free consult.
What Can I Expect During Individual Therapy?
At Healthy Minds NYC, your therapist will provide you with expert guidance, support, and insight to help you overcome the challenges that impair you from living the life you’re meant to live. You can expect a warm and nonjudgmental environment where you can safely explore the issues that matter to you. Each individual therapy session is 45 minutes in length. Our practice offers in-office therapy as well as telepsychiatry through safe HIPAA-compliant telecommunication software.
COLLABORATION
At Healthy Minds NYC, you’ll always be part of the conversation about your care. The style of treatment is dependent on your particular situation, goals, and preferences. Our team utilizes multiple evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals, such as:
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
Dialectical behavioral therapy
Solution-focused therapy
During your first session, you’ll explore these options and make a plan for future sessions. Plus, if therapy is working, your needs and goals will change and evolve over time. You’ll work with your therapist to reflect on what’s working so you can adjust your treatment style along the way. In a truly collaborative setting like Healthy Minds NYC, it’s never too late to pivot or try something new.
MEDICATION MANAGEMENT
Our practice also offers medication management, which may help you cope with some of the symptoms that affect your emotional and mental well-being. Our practice offers in-office therapy as well as telepsychiatry through safe HIPAA-compliant telecommunication software.
Is in-person therapy more expensive?
In-person therapy can sometimes be more expensive than virtual therapy due to factors like overhead costs (office space, utilities, etc.). However, the price varies depending on the therapist’s location, experience, and specialty.
What is the difference between counseling and therapy?
While the terms "counseling" and "therapy" are often used interchangeably, counseling typically focuses on short-term issues or life challenges, such as stress or relationship concerns. Therapy, on the other hand, often involves deeper exploration of mental health issues, past experiences, and long-term healing. Therapy may address more complex psychological conditions and require ongoing sessions.
