Adult Therapy

  • Individual therapy allows a person to work through aspects of their lives that they experience as challenging and to also process events that are experienced to be traumatic. Therapy can help a person work through many aspects of life, including:

    • Enhancing our relationships

    • Developing greater awareness of themselves

    • Overcoming feelings of depression or anxiety

    • Working through traumatic experiences

    • Preparing for and accepting life transitions (e.g. a new job, marriage, a child, divorce)

    • Identifying academic or professional goals

    • Processing aging and/or new medical diagnoses

    • Grieving the loss of a loved one

    Individual therapy provides a space for individuals to think through and understand struggles in their lives. With insight into the reasons for behaviors, comes the capacity to change behaviors and broaden the choices that a person makes.

    Short-term therapy is available through the Therapeutic Alliance Assessment Project (TAAP), a short-term psychotherapy research program that provides therapy to help adults who are struggling with their emotions, their relationships, and/or navigating changes in life circumstances. Deliberate practice informs the program in two important ways. First, patients’ complete self-report measures assessing treatment related factors (i.e. alliance), psychological well-being, and daily stressors that are subsequently reviewed in each session with their therapist. Second, all therapy sessions are video-recorded and are the bedrock of supervision.

  • Group therapy for adults provides a unique opportunity to understand one's current circumstances in the context of others who are experiencing similar situations. Groups are typically interactive and feedback can come from the therapist and/or other group members who often provide unique insights.

  • It takes courage to seek help, to face the difficulties in relationships and work to make relationships healthier and more satisfying. Engaging in therapy as a couple can help overcome differences, improve communication, enhance intimacy, and find a path to move forward together.
