How do I choose between individual, couples and group psychotherapy?
In conversation with you, we will help you decide which is most useful for you. Generally this has to do with the presenting problem. If you are having marital or premarital difficulties, then couples therapy is probably most appropriate, possibly followed by individual psychotherapy. For particular issues, general insight, and awareness of particular issues, individual psychotherapy will work for you. Group is often very useful for issues of relationship, such as improving communication, gaining more awareness of your reactions to different people, and your experience as a group participant. It also offers you an opportunity to receive honest feedback from other group members.
