People seek individual therapy for a variety of reasons. Some people feel challenged by persistent feelings of depression or anxiety, while others are simply challenges by difficulties adjusting life changes. Sometimes people seek out therapy with a clear goal of addressing a specific problem, while others present with more general feelings of dissatisfaction with certain aspects of their loves such as a slowly developing career or challenges with maintaining meaningful relationships. Life presents all of us with challenges which are often unexpected and unwanted. Therapy provides people with an opportunity to engage with a professional who is trained to guide others through difficult and/or traumatic life situations. Within the supporting therapeutic atmosphere many people are able to gain perspective and develop more effective coping skills to assist them in navigating through a path that is uniquely individual. Growth is often the focus of individual therapy rather than repair.
