Individual Therapy
Therapy is a process of self-reflection, growth and self-discovery. The therapy room is a safe environment where an individual externalizes thoughts, emotions, visualizes goals, gets support during difficult times, builds awareness, learns about onseself and recognizes maladaptive patterns and dynamics of relationships and also, has the opportunity to create a long lasting change in life.
