Individual therapy at Alliance is one-on-one counseling between you and a licensed therapist in a private, confidential setting. Sessions focus on your specific concerns: depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, substance use, family conflict, or coping skills. Your therapist tailors the approach to you, not a generic protocol.

Alliance individual therapy treats depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD and trauma, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance use disorders, ADHD, grief, relationship and family conflict, and adjustment to major life changes. Children, adolescents, adults, and older adults are all served. Specialized treatments include CBT, CPT for trauma, and Trauma-Focused CBT for young people.

The length of individual therapy at Alliance depends on you and your goals. Some people benefit from 6 to 12 sessions for a specific concern. Others stay in therapy for months or years to work through deeper issues. Your Alliance therapist reviews progress with you regularly and adjusts the plan.
