Individual Therapy

 
 

Individual Therapy

I offer weekly (or more frequent) 60-minute therapy sessions to individuals looking to work on concerns including (but not limited to) the following:

  • Relationship issues

  • Issues with life satisfaction

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Grief and loss

  • Work stress

  • Feeling "stuck" with repeating patterns you would like to change

  • Recovery from difficult life events

  • Feminist/women’s issues

  • Issues related to experiences with privilege and oppression

How do I get started?

Whether you are just considering treatment or have decided that you would like to begin therapy,  I am happy to set up a 20-minute phone consultation. These conversations provide the opportunity for you to gain a better feel for my approach to treatment and ask any questions you may have. Consultations are also a good time for us to discuss what is leading you to seek therapy and potential treatment options.  To set up a consultation, feel free to contact me via telephone (970-283-7711) or email (ashleyboyntonphd@gmail.com).

How often do I come, and How long will treatment last?

I find that weekly therapy best meets the needs of most individuals with whom I work. In some cases meeting twice a week is more helpful in the initial stages of treatment. The suggested length of treatment varies widely depending on the concerns that individuals are facing. If the problem developed relatively recently and is more limited in scope, for example difficulty transitioning to a new job, then you may anticipate a shorter course of treatment that would conclude within a matter of a few months. If problems are long-standing and affect several areas of functioning, then it is likely a treatment that spans a year or more will be most effective in providing long-term solutions.
