Individual Therapy

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY


Individual therapy offers the opportunity to meet with your therapist on a one-on-one basis in a private office that is comfortable, safe and confidential. In individual therapy you will collaboratively come up with goals and plans to work to achieve those goals. Your therapist may guide therapy from different theoretical backgrounds including intersystems, cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, problem-solving, mindfulness-based, and others. Your therapist will use an approach that fits the goals that you are coming in for and can tailor the approach based on your experiences and preferences. Your therapist may suggest exercises to complete between sessions to help you to work toward your goals. Be sure to communicate with your therapist about preferences or questions that you may have.



WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

Therapy usually begins in the form of weekly 50-minute sessions. Depending on the circumstances (e.g., distance, health limitations) extended session times may be available. Dr. Kalos’ role is to guide you in working toward the goals you set out while also continuously integrating your feedback as well as the significant events and changes that occur on a week to week  basis. Therapy is a process that evolves along with the changes that you make.
