A Collaborative Care Approach to Your Well-Being
Individual therapy is a partnership. Here’s how we often work together in our weekly sessions:
-
Your first session begins by listening to your story, understanding your current struggles, hearing your symptoms, and identifying what you hope to achieve.
-
At Jupiter Pines Counseling, we believe that one size does not fit all.
Your therapy sessions are tailored specifically to your unique history, values, and mental health goals. We provide a secure, confidential container where you can explore the root causes of anxiety, relationship patterns, or existential questions, so that you can move from feeling stuck to living with intention.
Based on your needs, we integrate evidence-based modalities like ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), REBT (Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy), Somatic and psychodynamic approaches to build a treatment plan that works for you, your history, your biology, and your overall goals.
-
Our sessions are dynamic. We adjust our approach as you and your life evolves so that every session supports you as you move closer to the life you envision for yourself.
