Individual Therapy to Understand and Find Yourself

Individual Therapy Houston TX

Life’s challenges can feel like a heavy weight to carry on your own. Perhaps you’ve been facing feelings of self-doubt, dealing with major life changes, or trying to make sense of emotions that seem overwhelming.

At Pear Tree Therapy, I specialize in individual therapy to help you process life’s complexities and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

What Is Individual Therapy?

Individual therapy is a one-on-one process where you work directly with a trained therapist in a safe, nonjudgmental space. It’s a chance to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while gaining tools to navigate challenges and achieve your personal goals. 

Each session is customized to your needs and concerns, whether they’re rooted in a specific life event or a general feeling that something isn’t quite right.

You might consider individual therapy if you’re experiencing:

  • Stress from work, relationships, or life transitions.

  • A need to explore personal growth or self-discovery.

  • Lingering effects of past experiences or trauma.

  • Difficulty managing emotions like anger, sadness, or anxiety.

  • A sense of being stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.

Therapy creates a space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings
without fear of judgment.

No matter what you’re going through, therapy can be a powerful step in uncovering the underlying causes of your struggles and finding solutions that work for you.

  • Unpack and Understand Your Emotions: Identify the root causes of emotional challenges and how they may impact your day-to-day life.

  • Build Practical Coping Strategies: Develop tools and techniques to handle stressful situations, regain control, and feel more confident in managing life’s ups and downs.

  • Create Clear Goals: Work toward the changes you want to see by setting manageable, actionable steps.

  • Explore Personal Growth: Discover and embrace your strengths while addressing areas for growth, leading to a deeper sense of self-awareness and fulfillment.

I take a collaborative and solution-focused approach to individual therapy.

  • Collaborative: You’re the expert on your life. Together, we create a tailored plan that respects your values and experiences.

  • Solution-Focused: My sessions emphasize practical tools and strategies to create positive change while recognizing your unique strengths.

Whether you’re rebuilding your confidence, enhancing relationships, or finding ways to manage stress, we’ll work side by side to help you achieve your goals in a way that feels empowering and effective.

It’s not uncommon to feel stuck or unsure of your next steps—but you don’t have to face it alone.

Starting therapy can feel like an uncertain path, yet it offers clarity, healing, and growth. Individual therapy provides an opportunity to explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals with the guidance of a compassionate professional. 

Pear Tree Therapy is here to support you in this meaningful process.

Let’s work together to create the life you want.

  • Currently, our therapists are meeting in person or through virtual sessions. We use a secure HIPAA platform (Simple Practice) to conduct virtual video sessions which you can access on your computer, tablet, or phone.

  • All major credit cards are accepted for payment.

  • Because it is difficult to fill a cancelled appointment without sufficient notice, appointments cancelled without 24 hours notice and missed (no-show) appointments will be charged the full cost of the session.

  • We are not in-network with any insurance companies, so we do not bill directly. With PPO insurance plans, we are considered out-of-network providers and you may be reimbursed in full or in part, depending on your coverage. We can provide you with a monthly superbill to give to your insurer that is a receipt of services that may meet the criteria for individual mental health diagnosis (a requirement for any insurance compensation). Please check your coverage by asking the following questions:

    Does my plan provide out-of-network reimbursement for mental health?

    Is there a deductible I need to meet before you will start to reimburse me?

    How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?

    What percentage of the fee do you cover?

  • You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your health care will cost

    Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have certain types of health care coverage or who are not using certain types of health care coverage an estimate of their bill for health care items and services before those items or services are provided.

    • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any health care items or services upon request or when scheduling such items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

    • If you schedule a health care item or service at least 3 business days in advance, make sure your health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule a health care item or service at least 10 business days in advance, make sure your health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after scheduling. You can also ask any health care provider or facility for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you do, make sure the health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after you ask.

    • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more for any provider or facility than your Good Faith Estimate from that provider or facility, you can dispute the bill.
