Individual therapy is an effective tool for addressing psychological distress that is challenging to cope with. Psychotherapy can get to the root cause of mental health conditions, allowing you to receive the emotional support you need to move forward in the healing process. A Mission For Michael (AMFM) is known for providing exceptional psychotherapy services in California, Washington, and Virginia.
AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers provide treatment for various psychological disorders, including mood disorders, personality disorders, and dual diagnosis concerns. Our clinical team provides a personalized therapy experience to ensure that your treatment focuses on your specific mental health symptoms. Let’s explore how the clinical team at A Mission For Michael Mental Health Treatment Centers can support you in your recovery.
Individual treatment is an ideal treatment approach for a range of behavioral health disorders because it can be tailored to your unique needs. Mental health concerns are often complex, with notable differences in symptoms and factors that contribute to the onset and persistence of mental health disorders.
With individual counseling, you’ll meet with a mental health professional in a 1:1 setting, allowing for a continuous source of support throughout your recovery. Many find that a private treatment setting is more conducive to their recovery because they may be uncomfortable sharing personal experiences, symptoms, and worries in a group setting.
If you can relate to that statement, know that that is perfectly fine! The expert staff at AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers work with you to find treatment approaches that promote overall wellness while respecting your comfort level. You may find that with individualized attention, you’re able to develop a stronger therapeutic relationship with your therapist or counselor. This can help you get to the root causes of your mental health concerns more efficiently.
Individual therapy can incorporate various therapeutic approaches targeting specific symptoms and psychological disorders. Individual therapy is available in both inpatient and outpatient treatment settings. It can be enhanced with other treatment approaches like group therapy, support groups, and pharmacotherapy.
Individual therapy can be beneficial in many ways for those struggling with psychological distress. Mental health counseling can be helpful for those who are experiencing hardships with their mental health, relationships, or thoughts without meeting the criteria for a formal psychiatric disorder. The individualized focus of therapy allows you to receive the care you need at that moment.
For those who are experiencing behavioral, cognitive, or emotional disorders, individual counseling can help you become more self-aware of your thoughts and emotions. It enables you to understand how your experiences are affecting you today. Talk therapy allows you to process the challenges you’re experiencing and learn effective coping strategies.
Additionally, individual counseling is a flexible treatment. Your therapist or counselor can use various approaches and therapeutic techniques to support you in your recovery. This includes specific approaches, such as cognitive therapy and exposure therapy. Comprehensive treatment can include additional services to enhance your counseling experience, including group therapy, family therapy, and psychoeducation groups.
To learn about the specific ways that psychotherapy can support you in your recovery, we invite you to contact A Mission For Michael (AMFM) for your confidential and free assessment today. Our clinical team will provide you with insights into the specific therapies and techniques that align with your mental health symptoms.
At AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers, we provide holistic healing opportunities that use evidence-based approaches. This is important because it means that the therapies that we use have been supported by research to treat common mental health disorders. More specifically, we utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed approaches, and more.
Your mental health assessment begins in the early stages of your admission process and helps us determine which therapeutic approaches are ideal for you. Some of the factors that we consider include your current symptoms, their severity, your mental health history, overall mental wellness, and your environment. We actively monitor your treatment progress to ensure that you’re receiving the emotional support and psychological interventions needed to effectively cope with your mental health symptoms.
Individual therapy and counseling day treatment are commonly used in addressing mental health concerns because they’re effective. The available evidence, as indicated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), states that intensive day treatment programs are effective for addressing a range of mental health disorders.
These approaches provide a structured, reliable source of support while allowing you to continue managing your daily responsibilities. Therapy can be provided in inpatient and outpatient programs, allowing you to receive care specific to your symptoms. One of the factors we encourage you to be mindful of in your treatment search is the use of evidence-based practices. This ensures that the specific therapeutic approach being used is scientifically proven to be effective for the mental health concern you’re experiencing. Therapies have varying methods and approaches to address mental health symptoms and conditions. There is no cookie-cutter approach to individual counseling, which is why individual differences are key components of treatment plan development.
In 2020, an estimated 10.1% of U.S. adults sought counseling or therapy, according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). This figure increased to 55.8 million adults by 2022, highlighting the growing importance of mental health services for Americans. Research has supported the effectiveness of therapy, indicating that about 75% of participants benefit from therapy.
The effectiveness of individual therapy is often tied to the strength of the therapeutic alliance between the therapist and the client. Important characteristics of the therapeutic relationship include trust and safety. When you have these core components, you’re more likely to fully participate in treatment. Data from the National Institute of Mental Health shows that women and adults aged 50 and older were more likely to seek treatment in 2022.
The cost of individual therapy is dependent on the care that you receive. Residential treatment programs generally have higher expenses than outpatient programs due to the intensity and support provided. Because of its flexibility, outpatient treatment is often a more affordable option. Individual therapy sessions can range from $100 to $200 per session, while group therapy is commonly less.
The cost of individual therapy can vary according to multiple factors, including your location, the expertise of your clinician, and the therapeutic approach being used. Contact A Mission For Michael today for a personalized quote for individual therapy.
Mental health treatment programs that offer individual therapy and counseling can be effective for various conditions, including severe mental illnesses. Your clinical team at AMFM will determine which therapeutic techniques are ideal for you based on your symptoms and how they impair your functioning. Some of the common mental health challenges seen in treatment include:
PTSD affects an estimated 3.5% of adults in the United States each year. Common mental health challenges associated with this condition include flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance. Various approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and prolonged exposure, are examples of therapies that can address and process traumatic memories. Through various trauma-informed methods, you can learn to cope with your mental health symptoms.
Anxiety disorders are common mental health concerns in the U.S. Social anxiety disorder affects approximately 7.1% of adults each year. Symptoms of this anxiety disorder can affect your career and social life. CBT and exposure therapy are used to address thoughts that contribute to your anxiety or worry, build your confidence in social settings, and implement new coping strategies.
An estimated 21 million adults in the United States experienced a depressive episode within the past year. Depression is known for feelings of hopelessness, loss of joy, and persistent sadness. CBT and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) are just two examples of evidence-based practices that can be used to address depressive symptoms and improve your mood.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) treatment often includes a combination of psychotherapy, behavioral therapy, and psychiatric medication. Together, these therapeutic interventions can help you improve focus, time management, and organizational skills. This can decrease impulsive behaviors and improve your overall emotional well-being.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is marked by the presence of obsessions and compulsions. For many, these symptoms are time-consuming and distressing, which can cause significant impairment. Treatment often includes Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and cognitive restructuring. Psychiatric treatment and medication management services may also be used.
Therapy for mood disorders, including the various forms of bipolar disorder, often includes individual therapy, educational sessions, and pharmacological therapy. This whole-person approach can stabilize your mood swings and identify triggers and warning signs for future challenges. Treatment interventions do vary for manic, depressive, and hypomanic episodes.
A Mission For Michael (AMFM) provides individual counseling and therapy services for those experiencing a range of psychological disorders. Our individualized and holistic treatment programs can incorporate the use of various specialized therapeutic approaches and additional services. To learn more about individual therapy near you, dial (866)478-4383.
Psychiatric disorders are treatable conditions when the right therapeutic approach is being used. We will touch upon commonly used therapies for psychological distress and review how they can help improve your psychological well-being. Each approach has specific interventions that are used to address particular mental health symptoms.
There is often stigma and misconceptions about when you should seek support for your mental health. Several stressors and situations warrant the support of individual counseling, including various personal challenges, family dynamics, and external stressors. Common situations where individual therapy can be helpful include:
Mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, and mood disorders are common reasons people seek treatment. Health challenges can also include medical health concerns causing significant emotional distress. Individual therapy can provide you with valuable support and focus on managing your symptoms so you can improve your emotional well-being.
Family conflict and dynamics are another common reason for accessing individual therapy. Individual therapy sessions can provide you with a safe space to process your experiences, improve communication patterns, and explore boundaries within your relationship. Individual therapy and counseling can help you heal from experiences, reducing your overall psychological distress.
You may find yourself in a situation where your friends or social circles impact your decision-making and other aspects of behavior. When these conflict with your values or goals, you may find yourself experiencing psychological distress. Therapy can help you navigate social relationships, establish boundaries, and ensure that your behaviors align with what’s important to you.
You may be in a position where you have a career that you are passionate about. Even those who do can experience burnout, anxiety, and depressive symptoms because of their work. Career-related therapy can help you implement coping strategies for your mental health symptoms and establish a healthy work-life balance.
Financial, social, and personal stressors are examples of everyday worries that can hurt our emotional well-being over time. You may not meet the clinical criteria for a common mental health disorder, but your challenges are still valid. Individual therapy can help you learn emotion regulation and stress management skills.

Latest metrics on the effectiveness of our care
We accept most major insurance providers and can check your coverage levels for you.
If we are not an appropriate provider for care, we will assist in finding a care provider that can help.
Yes, most companies do offer insurance coverage for counseling and individual therapy. Your insurance coverage will be specific to your insurance carrier and the details of your insurance policy. Most insurance companies offer a range of products and services to cater to the individual needs of their policyholders.
Insurance coverage for mental health services is an important component of the 2010 Affordable Care Act, which ensures that policyholders have access to some form of mental health treatment.
Many health insurance providers provide coverage for therapy and counseling services. UnitedHealthcare, BlueCross BlueShield, Aetna, Cigna, and Kaiser Permanente are a few examples of companies known for providing insurance coverage for mental health services. Each of these companies has a range of products and services, each of which has its own coverage rates.
To learn about the scope of your insurance coverage, we encourage you to complete our insurance verification form. At A Mission For Michael, we are committed to supporting you during each step of your recovery, including the initial steps.

For a personalized estimate for individual therapy and counseling tailored to your needs, we encourage you to call us today. We can verify your insurance specifics and provide you with a personalized quote for treatment.
Yes! Outpatient treatment programs offer individual therapy and counseling as core components of treatment. This allows you to meet individually with mental health professionals to focus on your unique concerns, symptoms, and goals. Outpatient therapy is ideal for those who have mild to moderate symptoms and can cope with their emotional, psychological, and cognitive symptoms without consistent support.
Outpatient programming allows you to continue your daily routine while receiving personalized care. Depending on your treatment facility, you may have access to specialized therapies, trauma recovery programs, and wellness coaching. Outpatient programs are flexible and are often modified over time to reflect your progress and challenges. You may choose to engage in outpatient programming for a few months or longer to reach your mental health goals.
Similarly, residential treatment programs also provide individual counseling services as a key component of their care. The notable difference is that with a residential treatment program, you have access to professional support and guidance around the clock because you will be staying within the safety of the treatment facility.
Residential treatment programs provide comprehensive care that is tailored to your symptoms. Your treatment plan may include additional therapeutic interventions, including group therapy, psychoeducational groups, and psychiatric medication services to provide whole-person care. Your clinical team will thoroughly discuss your treatment options after your mental health assessment, allowing you to collaboratively develop a treatment plan.
Residential treatment programs are an effective treatment approach for those who are experiencing moderate to severe symptoms. Those experiencing mild symptoms would not have the same experience with this treatment program because of its immersive nature. Residential treatment programs often combine individual therapy with group and psychoeducational groups.
Residential treatment programs tend to initially focus on stabilizing your mental health symptoms. This varies from person to person in terms of what interventions are used and how long they take. Residential treatment programs are essential for those experiencing severe mental illnesses, such as bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, and schizophrenia. You may sometimes be referred to outpatient treatment for continued therapy services after completing residential treatment programs.
The length of individual therapy services varies greatly because they are dependent on your mental health symptoms and level of psychological distress. Generally, those who are experiencing moderate to severe mental illness engage in treatment for a longer duration compared to those experiencing mild psychological distress.
Outpatient treatment programs may be able to provide you with services for a longer period compared to inpatient rehabilitation programs. A key factor that will influence the duration of treatment is the type of therapy being used. Some evidence-based practices are fluid and not structured, whereas others have a general flow usually completed within a set time frame. If you would like to learn more about treatment programs available at A Mission For Michael that can support you in your recovery, we encourage you to call us today.
There are often several steps required in the process of finding your ideal counseling or therapy provider. We encourage you to be mindful of the treatment you need and other expectations or hopes you have for your treatment program. Try using some or all of the following steps during your search:
In individual therapy, you work one-on-one with a therapist in a safe, caring, and confidential environment. It’s a big part of AMFM’s inpatient treatment, and it can help with all kinds of mental health issues. With your therapist, you’ll explore your feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, work through challenging or influential memories, identify parts of your life that you’d like to change, and work toward desired goals. There’s more to individual therapy than just symptom relief- it also fosters deep personal growth, understanding of self, and lasting recovery.
At AMFM, we don’t do cookie-cutter therapy. We know that everyone’s journey is unique, which is why our therapy is tailored to fit your specific needs, goals, and circumstances. We’ll take the time to really get to know you, build a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and respect, and choose from a variety of therapeutic techniques to find the one that best suits your situation.
The AMFM comprehensive care model blends individual therapy with a broader range of services. Personalized therapy is just one aspect of treatment, and it works hand in hand with group therapy and medication management. Therapy allows individuals to work on specific personal challenges and goals, while group settings allow them to benefit from the shared experiences and broader perspectives offered in group settings. Medication management, when needed, is carefully coordinated with therapeutic goals, so that every aspect of care works together.
Nothing is more core to our treatment philosophy than the idea of holistic healing—caring for the mind, body, and spirit. A lot of this approach relies on individual therapy, which provides a space for exploration and growth. The therapy is part of an ecosystem that includes nutritional support, physical wellness activities, and mindfulness practices. AMFM wants to make sure that treatment isn’t just about alleviating symptoms, but also about fostering a balanced and fulfilling life.
We believe in the power of individual therapy – alongside comprehensive, holistic care – to transform lives.
