Individual therapy is all about you.  It is your story and your experience. Through therapy you can develop insight and awareness into your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This safe and compassionate environment is one in which you  can explore your life experiences and talk about those things in your life that are causing distress. At the beginning of the therapeutic relationship, it is important to discuss history and then begin to establish goals for what you want to accomplish in therapy. Often times, there are barriers that interfere with a sense of balance and well-being, overcoming these is often part of the process. Therapy is not always easy and you will leave challenged, but it is my hope that you will also leave changed.
