Do I Need a Diagnosis to go to Individual Therapy?

Diagnoses can help to structure therapy goals and guide our work together. However, addressing a diagnosis, or even getting a diagnosis in the first place, is not all that we can do together. The therapy partnership asks individuals and their counselors to look at “pain points” (the areas of our lives that cause discomfort or lack of fulfillment). Sometimes, these pain points are a diagnosis like depression or anxiety, but just as often, they are things like interpersonal conflicts, life transitions, and other day-to-day challenges. During individual therapy sessions, we can explore how you approach life, view yourself, communicate, and bond with your loved ones, peers, or community. Your San Diego therapist will provide support and guidance for your self-exploration. The clinician may also offer new strategies for how to approach the world in ways that alleviate stress, increase self-acceptance, and improve the way you bond with others.

If you do have a clinical diagnosis or were referred by another healthcare provider who thinks you could benefit from individual therapy to approach a specific concern, our clinicians have experience working with those who struggle with:

Shouldn’t I Just Deal with This on My Own?

Sometimes it’s hard to ask for help. It feels like life is so overwhelming that no one would be able to ease your pain, but you don’t have to feel like it’s all on you to make a change or feel better. We are all made for connection and community, and one of the things that San Diego therapy really helps with is providing a good example of what it means to be in a healthy, functional, supportive relationship. No matter what you’re dealing with or how difficult it is to express, a caring therapist can help you find the words to describe your emotions and help you understand why you’ve been struggling.

Part of a San Diego therapist’s job is to be your support system and help you experience a safe and fulfilling relationship. The experience of an individual therapy session with a warm and nurturing therapist can help you to develop healthier relationships outside of therapy. This could result in you expanding your support network, once you learn new coping skills and have insight to better understand your life concerns and how you communicate with others.
