Individual Therapy

Your Journey Towards Healing

Life’s challenges can often feel overwhelming. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply trying to make sense of life’s transitions, individual therapy offers a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions. At Lotus Counseling, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

What Is Individual Therapy?
Individual therapy is a collaborative process where you work one-on-one with a licensed therapist to address personal concerns, develop coping strategies, and create a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life. Together, we’ll work to understand the root causes of your challenges and empower you with tools to overcome them.

How Can Individual Therapy Help?
Every person’s journey is unique, and so are the benefits of therapy. Some ways individual therapy can help include:

  • Reducing Anxiety & Stress: Learn techniques to manage overwhelming emotions and regain a sense of calm.
  • Improving Self-Awareness: Explore your patterns, behaviors, and triggers to better understand yourself.
  • Navigating Life Transitions: Receive guidance during pivotal moments such as career changes, loss, or major decisions.
  • Building Resilience: Gain tools to handle adversity and create long-lasting emotional well-being.

Our Approach to Therapy
At Lotus Counseling, we believe in creating a warm and welcoming environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Our therapists tailor their approach to meet your unique needs, blending evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and solution-focused strategies to foster meaningful growth.

What to Expect
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and we’re here to make it as smooth as possible. During your first session, your therapist will take the time to get to know you, understand your goals, and create a personalized plan to guide your journey. Whether you’re looking for short-term support or ongoing care, we’re here to meet you where you are.

You Don’t Have to Face This Alone
Reaching out for help takes courage, but it’s also the first step toward transformation. Individual therapy provides a space where you can be yourself, free from judgment, and discover the tools you need to thrive.

Patient testimonials

Hear from our patients in their own words

Coming to see you was the best decision I ever made" are words that I said to Alessana at some point during my therapy. Alessana helped me build confidence in myself both personally and professionally. Through my therapy, I gained insight and understanding of who I am and my value, and not just to individuals in my life, but to myself. I now value who I am and most importantly, respect myself. Subsequently, I am down to a 5mg dose (compared to 25mg dose when I started therapy) of blood pressure medication and have continued to lose and maintain my weight. I attribute these improvements to therapy. I've learned to control my stress, think things out without anger or anxiety and that keeps my emotional state on an even keel. Additionally, it has helped me from hitting the fridge when I am stressed or at the very least make better, healthier choices. Now, one year after completing therapy, I still feel it was the best decision I ever made.

I started working with Alessana because I was desperate for change and had reached a low point in my life. Her compassion and empathetic support were crucial to my healing many old wounds and the variety of techniques she employs in therapy helped me to find an inner fortitude I never knew I had. I have learned from her how to set healthy boundaries in my relationships and am now finding it easy to speak what is on my mind effectively. Moreover, I now know I have a lot to say, and a right to be heard. My relationships are more authentic and I am having a lot more fun these days--which is a lot to be said, given the current state of world affairs. I'm grateful to Alessana for her professional talents, her enduring patience, kindness and guidance, not to mention her sense of humor. I never knew therapy could be fun. I will continue to recommend her as a counselor/therapist/coach."

Alessana Fordin has been indescribably helpful to me in my life. I recommended Alessana and the Lotus Counseling Center to one of my best and closest friends. Ms. Fordin is very intelligent, highly trained, patient, knowledgeable, caring and compassionate. She helped me resolve major issues that had been bothering me and recurring for years. I am so blessed to have her in my life. I now love myself and feel much better."

I started working with Alessana to treat depression and anxiety. Years ago, I would never have thought that I would be in the place that I'm in today. My work with her has greatly improved all aspects of my life. I have a better relationship with myself and others. Alessana is truly the best at what she does. She is very compassionate, intelligent, understanding, and kind. She has guided me to overcome and understand a lot of challenges that I've had. Going to Lotus has been one of the most fulfilling choices that I've made for myself. I am forever thankful for the work that we've done together!!
