Individual Therapy

Joureny Inward Counseling

Individual Therapy

It is often said that to experience peace around you, first you must develop peace within. Or as the now famous adage goes, “Happiness is an inside job.” Individual therapy is an opportunity to further develop a compassionate relationship with yourself by going within to explore where you have been, where you are, and where you would like to go! Collaborating with a therapist is an avenue to effect change through identification of values and moving your life

in the direction of what brings you meaning. Whether you are navigating a present crisis, past trauma, or simply seeking a space to navigate the ebb and flow of being human, individual therapy is a time to create intentional pause to attune to your emotional experience. From having a place to reflect and process, people often gain insight and tools for managing some of the trickier aspects in our relationship with ourselves and those around us. At Journey Inward, we utilize a variety of evidence based interventions and therapeutic approaches to support individuals of all ages, abilities, racial, cultural, religious/spiritual, economic backgrounds, and sexual identification and orientation. Such interventions include: Conventional Talk Therapy (CTT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, The Gottman Method, Parent Child Interaction, Art Therapy, Yoga Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT).

FAQs

Hypothyroidism can result from:

  • An autoimmune condition
  • Cancer treatments such as radiation therapy
  • Thyroid surgery
  • Particular medications

Several risk factors for developing hypothyroidism include:

  • Hereditary factors
  • Being female
  • Being over 60 years old

The providers at Client_Name are seasoned in the treatment of hypothyroidism irrespective of how your condition started and what factors put you at risk.

Some of the most common symptoms of hypothyroidism include:

  • Fatigue

  • Dry skin
  • Memory issues
  • Feeling depressed
  • Dry, thinning hair
  • Muscle weakness
  • Muscle pain

Because thyroid hormones play such a wide role across your body, from heat regulation to organ functionality, the list of symptoms can go on and on.  Everyone has unique responses to lower than normal thyroid hormones, and thus individualized, patient-centered treatment plans designed by expert physicians such as those at Client_Name are essential to manage your thyroid hormone levels. 

To explore whether or not hypothyroidism is in fact causing the symptoms you are experiencing, the providers at Client_Name perform a thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) test.  A simple blood draw is all that is needed to do a proper lab analysis for determining your TSH levels.

If low thyroid hormone levels are discovered, your provider at Client_Name will prescribe you a specified dosage of medication, in a quantity particular to your body’s insufficiency level, that will help make up the deficit. Though hypothyroidism can’t be cured, your provider can help you effectively manage the condition with synthetic thyroxine medication. 

As time progresses, the experts at Client_Name will work with you step by step to adjust your dosage as your symptoms and overall condition alter, thereby finding the optimal level needed for your body to establish hormonal balance and overall better health.
