Individual Therapy

A place to put things down, without an audience. Individual therapy at Trust is one person and one licensed or qualified therapist, meeting by secure video, working through whatever’s actually going on – not a scripted intake, not a diagnosis-first conversation. For a lot of people, the first session is the first time they’ve said any of it out loud.

What individual therapy is

Therapeutic approaches we use

Your therapist chooses an approach based on what you’re actually working through, not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Common approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps identify and reshape the thought patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood; trauma-focused approaches, which process difficult experiences at a pace your nervous system can handle rather than forcing you to relive them; and mindfulness-based techniques, which build practical tools for managing stress and staying present when your mind wants to spiral. Some clients benefit from a blend of approaches over time as the work evolves.

Signs individual therapy may help

You don’t need a crisis to justify starting. Some signs worth paying attention to: you’re more irritable than usual and can’t pinpoint why, you’ve stopped enjoying things that used to matter to you, you’re more tired than sleep can fix, you’re avoiding people or situations you used to handle fine, or you just have a persistent sense that something needs to change and you don’t know where to start. “I don’t even know if this is bad enough to need therapy” is one of the most common things we hear. It usually is.

It’s one-on-one — no partner or family member joins. Couples or Family Therapy is a better fit if that’s what you’re looking for.

No. Plenty of clients start without a diagnosis or a clear label for what they’re dealing with — that’s often part of what therapy helps you figure out.

Usually weekly at first, adjusting to less frequent as things stabilize.

With insurance, your cost depends on your specific plan, which we verify before your first session. Without insurance, sliding scale and private pay start at $55.

Both provide mental health treatment; the difference is usually in training and licensure type. What matters most for fit is your therapist’s specific experience with what you’re working through, which is exactly what our matching process accounts for.

You meet by secure video from anywhere private, as long as you’re physically located in a state where your therapist is licensed. For the full explanation of the technology and format, see our Online Therapy page.

"We had a fantastic therapist and provided a really welcoming and constructive environment for us to work together on my issues. She helped me identify my own issues, and also get over real hurdles in my life. She provided numerous resources that I am still working my way through. I would highly recommend trying it out if you haven't!"

"Our therapist at Trust Therapeutics is an amazing resource for the staff and students at Fenway High School. She provides individual counseling to students, consults with school faculty, and often provides resources and a helping hand to the interns at Fenway High. The students often leave counseling sessions with a smile on their face. She truly connects with and makes quite the difference in our students' lives. We are truly lucky to have her as an additional therapeutic resource."
