Group and individual therapy can provide the support you need to navigate life’s struggles or identify how to level up and become the best version of yourself. In this episode, Tara and Tanya Cole-Lesnick, a psychotherapist and coach, discuss what it looks like to explore your mental health and self-care with the support of individual and group therapy sessions. Tanya shares how to determine which setting is best for you, identify the physical and emotional symptoms that help you understand when to seek out help, and how to find a therapist that is the perfect fit (for both your lifestyle and your bank account).

It’s about exploring your internal world.

For Tanya, becoming a psychotherapist and coach was not always part of her career plan. She decided to make the switch from graphic design to psychotherapy after experiencing individual and group therapy as a client. Tanya’s experience and transformation were so powerful that she was inspired to dedicate her career to creating a safe space for others to make connections and talk about their internal worlds.

Choosing between individual and group therapy

The therapy environment you choose can mold the experience you have. Tanya walks through the benefits of working with a professional therapist one-on-one who listens to you and understands your perspective. She also covers how group therapy can make way for really organic conversations that can present unique opportunities for self-discovery.

The signs that it’s time to seek therapy

Whether you are experiencing a time of crisis or a season of success, therapy can support you in all stages of life. In this episode, Tanya uncovers:

- the physical and emotional symptoms that help you identify when seeking therapy could be the best solution for you;

- how to sign up for sessions without feeling shame or intimidation;

- the areas of life therapy can help you work on--including relationship issues, wanting more out of life, overcoming overwhelm, and navigating life after the pandemic.

Tanya even touches on accessible self-care methods that you can start today, such as journaling and breathing techniques, to explore your emotions deeper.
