Individual Therapy

Therapy is going to look different for everyone.  

​

Many young people struggle to directly name their emotions.  It takes time to build trust and rapport within a new space.  Therapy can act as a bridge to greater confidence and offer a space for exploring new ideas.  It may include building out coping skills, expressive art and explorative communication through play while building the safe connection required for a solid therapeutic relationship.  

​

Adults often require a bit of unlearning ideas they've been taught to believe about themselves.  Late diagnosed neurodivergent adults may finally begin to notice aspects within friend groups, family or workplace dynamics that have long felt difficult, and need a place to confront that safely.  They may desire a safe place to work on communication as it relates to their partnerships or desire additional input and understanding as they parent a neurodivergent child or children.

​

There's no judgment here.  There's no need to "fix" who you are, it's more about using current information as data to plan for safer interaction with the world.  We can work on self compassion, learning ways to support self care that makes sense and work to advocate for your needs or your child.  Whatever brings you to therapy, whether it's for yourself or learning to support a partner or child in different ways, it was a good idea.  You're doing great so far.
