IT is a course of self-examination, emotional awareness and growth. it involves an individual’s exploration of inner
conflicts and dysfunctional patterns of behavior. Focus is placed on understanding all aspects of an individual’s life; sources of stress, external pressures (one’s
circumstances), a person’s capacity to relate to others, inner strengths’, personality traits and behavioral manifestations of one’s ability to cope with situations.
Through selective questioning by a licensed professional, an evaluation is completed to determine the severity of identified symptoms, than a plan for treatment is developed with the individual to achieve desired goals. The methods used in achieving these goals may depend on the orientation of the therapist and finding someone whom you are comfortable with becomes a key to success. In addition to the therapist modality for treatment, one’s motivational level is also important to assess as this determines the length of treatment. The length of therapy will also vary depending upon the type and amount of issues you bring into your session. Your progress in treatment is periodically reviewed and revised as needed.
At times, changes brought about your efforts may cause you discomfort or anxiety and such feelings should be discussed in your sessions. These emotions often accompany behavioral change and can be a sign of progress. Therapy requires your time and patience as you go through an introspective process towards personal growth.
Although, we live in a fast paced society investing time into oneself is something few of us are accustomed to doing. Finding healthy supports are even more difficult to come by and somehow reliance on quick fixes becomes more accessible to us during vulnerable times.
When choosing a therapist, find someone you are comfortable with and ask questions about their credentials and years of training, time in practice and their orientation. Be specific about your questions and the type of concerns that you bring. The personal qualities of the therapist and therapist/client rapport are more important than the specific type of therapy employed.
