Individual Therapy
At Manhattan Cognitive Therapy Consultants Science Meets Compassion in Every Session
What is Individual Therapy?
Individual therapy (also called psychotherapy, talk therapy, or counseling) is a confidential, one-on-one treatment process between a trained mental health professional and a client. Its goal is to help you better understand yourself, improve emotional well-being, and make meaningful changes in your life.
What Happens in Individual Therapy?
Therapy is collaborative process: the therapist guides and supports, but you set the pace and goals.
- Discuss thoughts, emotions, and experiences
- Identify what’s causing distress or keeping you stuck
- Learn new coping skills and strategies
- Work toward personal goals and healthier patterns
What Types of Individual Therapy are available at Manhattan Cognitive Therapy Consultants?
Therapists may use different evidence-based methods depending on your needs:
- CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): Focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors
- Psychodynamic Therapy: Explores deeper emotional patterns and past experiences
- DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): Helps with emotional regulation and coping skills
- Attachment-based therapy is a form of psychotherapy grounded in attachment theory — the idea that our earliest relationships with caregivers shape the way we relate to others, handle emotions, and feel safe in the world.
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) is a structured, time-limited therapy that focuses on improving a person’s relationships and social functioning to reduce psychological symptoms—especially depression.
- Humanistic Therapy: Emphasizes self-growth and empowerment
