What is therapy and how does it work?

We are challenged by so much in our lives, whether in our mental and physical health, relationships and family, personal identity, or our ability to cope with transition and trauma. Therapy has been proven to help clients develop effective coping and problem-solving skills, improve relationships, make behavioral changes, reduce depression and anxiety, resolve past trauma, and improve overall quality of life.

Everyone comes to therapy with different goals, so the process will look different for each client. In general, sessions involve: discussion of stressors, your personal history, and your goals. The more involved you are in therapy, the more likely you are to achieve results. However, change can be slow, frustrating, and at times difficult. We will stand by you throughout it. In time, relief from pain can occur, often followed by deeper levels of personal satisfaction.

Therapy sessions are 50-60 minutes in length, typically once per week, either in our private office in Savannah or via secure telehealth platform. We provide both short- and long-term treatment depending on your needs.
