Individual therapy is a one-on-one space where you can focus entirely on your needs, experiences, and goals. Whether you’re working through specific challenges, seeking tools for day-to-day stress, or hoping to better understand yourself, therapy provides a supportive, non-judgmental environment where growth is possible.​​

​

At Helix, we tailor therapy to you, drawing from different evidence-based approaches depending on what fits your situation best.

Our Approaches

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and replace them with healthier, more constructive ones. It’s often effective for anxiety, depression, phobias, and day-to-day stress management. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, giving you practical tools you can start using right away.

​

Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape your present thoughts, feelings, and relationships. It can be especially helpful if you want to understand yourself more deeply, work through unresolved issues, or break free from patterns that keep repeating.

​

Humanistic Therapy
Humanistic approaches focus on self-growth and personal potential. Rather than just focusing on problems, we work together to highlight your strengths, values, and capacity for change. This approach is supportive if you’re seeking clarity, self-acceptance, or direction in life.

​

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness strategies. It’s designed to help regulate intense emotions, improve relationships, and cope with distress without harmful behaviors. DBT can be especially helpful for individuals struggling with emotional intensity, self-destructive patterns, or difficulty managing stress.

​

Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
EFT helps you understand, process, and make sense of your emotions. By identifying the role emotions play in your life, you can respond to them in healthier ways. This approach is useful for people experiencing relationship struggles, unresolved grief, or feeling “stuck” emotionally.

​

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT focuses on accepting what is outside of your control while committing to actions that align with your values. Rather than eliminating difficult feelings, it teaches you how to live meaningfully alongside them. ACT can be effective for anxiety, depression, chronic illness, and life transitions.

What to Expect

​

In individual therapy, sessions are guided by your goals and pace. Some people prefer structured, skills-based approaches, while others want open-ended space to process experiences. Together, we’ll discuss what feels most comfortable and useful for you, adjusting as your needs evolve.

You’ll find that therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about providing support, new perspectives, and practical tools while honoring the strengths you already bring.

Frequently Asked Questions​

How do I know which type of therapy is right for me?
You don’t have to decide this on your own. During our first sessions, we’ll talk about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. From there, we’ll create an approach that feels right for you.

​

Will therapy give me quick results?
Some approaches, like CBT, can provide tools that help quickly. Others, like psychodynamic therapy, take more time to explore deeper patterns. Progress looks different for everyone, but many clients notice meaningful changes after a few sessions.

​

Can therapy really help if I’ve tried before and it didn’t work?
Yes. Sometimes it takes finding the right therapist, approach, or timing. We’ll focus on tailoring therapy to your unique needs instead of following a one-size-fits-all model.

​

What if I’m nervous about starting?
That’s completely normal. Many people feel hesitant at first. The early sessions are about building comfort and trust, so you feel safe sharing at your own pace.
