What is psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy, individual therapy, or talk therapy is a collaborative process between you and Candice that aims to improve your mental health and well-being.
It involves exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a safe and non-judgmental environment, with the goal of developing strategies for coping with challenges and achieving personal growth.
How can psychotherapy help me?
Psychotherapy is beneficial for a wide range of mental health concerns, including disorders related to mental health and daily struggles in your life, work and relationships.
If you are struggling with any of the following, then psychotherapy will be a crucial tool in your healing journey.
- Depression and anxiety disorders, including generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and specific phobias
- Trauma and stress-related disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD) and acute stress disorder
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
- Body dysmorphic disorder
- Eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia and binge eating
- Personality disorders, such as borderline personality disorder
- Substance abuse and addiction
- Relationship and family issues
It's essential to note that you can still seek therapy even if you are not struggling with the above concerns. If you are in a place where you feel you need to talk to someone, therapy can help.
What to expect during psychotherapy
Candice incorporates a wide range of psychotherapy techniques and modalities to help individuals with their mental health concerns. This is completely tailored to your unique needs, so your therapy journey will appear different to others.
During your first session, Candice will conduct an initial assessment to better understand your history, concerns and goals. Then, she will develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and the issues you want to address.
The following sessions will involve exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a safe and compassionate space. Candice will listen in detail and provide feedback, guidance and tools to help you overcome your challenges.
Candice understands that the decision to begin therapy can be scary, but it's a brave step towards bettering yourself and your life. Client-doctor confidentiality is a big part of the practice and ensures that your sessions are completely private.
