How does Therapy Help? How to Overcome Adversity?

There are many benefits to therapy. Depending on your current situation and the reasons you are seeking help can impact the success of therapy. In other words, if you are seeking diagnosis or treatment for a Mental Illness, therapy can help you better manage outbreaks, triggers, and the symptoms you are facing. It can also help offer you increased coping skills needed to overcome your adversities. For instance, opening your eyes to new ways is not always front and center. Dealing with situations becomes the focus as you may not be aware of them before. Above all, therapy helps offer problem-solving skills, provide support, and can help you work through your current or past life challenges.

What to expect from your first visit with a Therapist?

The main focus of your first therapy session:

2. Build A Relationship of Trust with your therapist

Think of the first session as more like a two-way interview. We will get to know each other and make sure each of us is the right fit. Additionally will ask you questions to help me better and more completely understand your primary issues or concerns. Additionally, historic events in your childhood, family, life, and career. Secondly, you are equally welcome to ask questions too. Above all, support and honesty are imperative as we both establish a client/therapist relationship. The nature and the quality of our relationship, in fact, will guide and determine the success of the overall therapeutic goals. Expected values for all sessions are as followed:

• Arrive in a safe, confidential, supportive space
• Treated with respect, understanding, compassion, and empathy
• Expect to receive strategies and techniques you can use to impact positive changes in your life journey
• Have a listening therapist to understand your interpretation of the adversities you are currently facing
• Align scientifically backed techniques, knowledgeable information to help assist you in overcoming your mental health-related struggles.

Is Therapy Confidential? You’re protected under HIPAA.

As a general rule, all therapy sessions are confidential. Therefore, anything you discuss with your therapist will remain between the two of you, unless you request otherwise. This is as per protection rules by law (HIPAA), which all therapists legally need to follow. No information from the session can be disclosed without prior consent from the client in written form.

There are exceptions to this law, however. A therapist can disclose information from the session to legal authorities or appointed persons if any of the following are true:

• The therapist suspects abuse to a child, dependent adult, or an elder, or is made aware of domestic abuse. These situations all require the therapist to notify law authorities immediately.
• If the therapist suspects an individual has caused or is threatening to cause severe bodily harm to another person, therapists are required to report it to the police.
• If an individual intends to harm himself or herself, expressing to the therapist, for example, plans for suicide. While the therapist will attempt to work through this in the therapy session if it appears to be unresolved or the client does not cooperate, additional action may need to be taken to ensure the safety of the client.
