INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR ADULTS: All Inner Humanism
Psychotherapists
provide Individual Psychotherapy for adults and treat a wide range of problems.
See Problems Treated and Inner Humanism Advances for more information.
The Inner Humanism Psychotherapist you select will get to know you, the specific
concerns and difficulties you experience, along with the changes you want to make.
Your psychotherapy will be based entirely on the goals you set. Inner Humanism
Individual Psychotherapy focuses simultaneously on both a practical level – to
help you make changes in your feelings, relationships, and behavior in your daily
life, and on a deeper level – to help with the source of the unhappiness while
strengthening your pleasurable inner well-being.
COUPLES PSYCHOTHERAPY: All Inner Humanism Psychotherapists provide
Couples Psychotherapy. A couple can receive help that is informed by the advances
of Inner Humanism to address a wide range of problems in their romantic relationship.
Problems often arise from different models for engaging in romantic relationships
which each member brings from her or his family of origin. These different
models can lead to: clashes in styles of communication, conflict over how much
time to spend together, differences in what makes each person feel cared for and
understood, barriers in expressing your own feelings or in meeting the other’s
important needs, and problems with intimacy and parenting. You can receive
help addressing these conflicts, along with help developing agreed upon ideals
for conducting a more satisfying relationship. Underlying, individual issues which
contribute to the relationship problems can be addressed most effectively in
Individual Psychotherapy with a separate psychotherapist.
EXECUTIVE COACHING: Certain Inner Humanism Psychotherapists who specialize in
Executive Coaching and Career Development can help as you seek to improve
your daily work experience while striving to reach your full career potential. Your
IH Executive Coach will get to know you, your career goals, the specific concerns
and difficulties you experience at work, along with the changes you want to make.
Coaching will focus on developing strategies that increase the likelihood of success
and job satisfaction, including helping you develop important capacities like
problem solving, making good decisions, leadership, team work, and follow through.
An additional unique focus of Inner Humanism Executive Coaching is to help you
determine when personal feelings might be interfering with your ability to carry out
your work roles and duties. As you implement these improvements, you will
increasingly have the freedom to make the most of rewarding career opportunities.
Sometimes in the course of coaching, individuals find they want to get further help
with underlying issues they and their Executive Coach have come to identify and
this is available through Individual Psychotherapy.
INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR TEENS: Certain Inner Humanism Psychotherapists have specialized training to offer psychotherapy tailored to the unique developmental needs of teens as they navigate adolescence. During this stage, even in the face of having many strengths, a young person’s self-esteem can be challenged or bruised by many internal and external forces. The Inner Humanism Psychotherapist you choose to work with your teen will be especially attuned to the moods, feelings,
behaviors, relationships, and academic concerns of adolescents and will identify
and address the specific needs of your child. In the context of a supportive, caring therapeutic relationship, the Inner Humanism Psychotherapist will offer your teen the opportunity to work toward building a solid inner happiness. This inner happiness will become her or his foundation for making good choices and taking the very best care of himself or herself in the areas of health and safety, relationships, school, leisure, and social activities.
