We know that starting therapy or changing therapists can be intimidating! At Be Well Kentucky, we focus on evidenced-based treatments as they’ve been proven to quickly reduce symptoms and improve people’s quality of life. In other words, our treatments can help you get back to leading the life you want to live.
Therapy usually starts with a consultation appointment to seek to understand what brings you into treatment and provide some education about potential treatment options.
Next we assess your symptoms using standardized measures. We focus on clarifying your current concerns and past experiences, then we identify a diagnosis (if present) and give treatment recommendations. We provide education on your diagnosis and the treatment recommendations before we start services as a part of the informed consent process. We can answer any questions you have before starting treatment and answer additional questions that pop up as treatment progresses.
Once you start therapy services, most sessions will start with a brief check in on how your week is going and symptoms and successes you experienced the previous week. We generally set an agenda for the session. At times we will administer assessment measures to monitor change and progress.
Sessions often have a psychoeducation component and a behavioral component. This supports learning new skills; you practice new skills in session and then in your daily life. Once you’re ready, we face our fears on purpose in sessions (exposure), so many sessions will include doing an exposure.
Sessions wrap up with identifying plans for the week and homework to support your continued progress in treatment.
