Individual Therapy involves client and therapist in a one-to-one situation. Individual therapy sessions are scheduled for at least once a week and usually last for 45-50 minutes, giving the therapist the remainder of the hour to make notes, which will aid in further treatment. Individual therapy works best for people who may not be comfortable in a group setting or whose specific problems do not lend themselves to group discussion.
Sometimes, clients start out in individual therapy and move on to a therapy group after the initial crisis is resolved. Couples therapy is effective for marriage or divorce counseling, relationships difficulties, or premarital counseling. Each person has the opportunity to express his/her feelings and point of view, with the therapist acting as a neutral sounding board for their conflicts and complaints.

Self-esteem: Do you understand your strengths, weaknesses, and values? Do you like yourself? Do you only recognize your weaknesses? Do you consistently feel less valuable than others or take the blame for anything that goes wrong? After you've rated yourself, check your perceptions by asking an honest friend or relative to rate you, too.
Commitment and energy are required to maximize the benefits of therapy. To maintain the emotional energy required by therapy, it is essential to keep your physical health intact. Eat well, exercise and limit your intake of alcohol and caffeine. Be patient and persevere. Your problems developed over a period of years and it will take time to learn different approaches to life.
