What is individual therapy?
Individual therapy is one-on-one support from a trained, compassionate therapist who’s there to focus entirely on you. It’s your space to be honest, unfiltered, and real — without judgment, pressure, or performance.
Whether you’re working through a specific struggle or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, counseling helps you untangle thoughts, process emotions, and build healthier ways of thinking and responding. Sessions are confidential, paced at your comfort level, and shaped by what matters most to you.
Some days it’s about learning skills. Some days it’s about falling apart. It’s all welcome here.
WHAT DOES HELP LOOK LIKE?
The Pathways Approach to Individual Counseling
At Pathways Family Therapy, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Our counseling is tailored to who you are — your pace, your needs, your voice.
We draw from a range of evidence-based and expressive modalities, including:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Mindfulness-based approaches
- Narrative and strengths-based therapy
- Somatic, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and emotion-focused techniques
- Art therapy, when creative expression is needed
We begin by building trust — and then walk with you, step by step, toward clarity, self-understanding, and healing. You don’t have to do this alone. We’re here when you’re ready.
