Being single: when it gets in your way

Individual therapy can help if you’re struggling with being single, it’s getting in your way or making you gloomy. In the process, therapy leads to greater personal insight and you learn more about yourself.

Enjoying having a partner or not having one for a while; everyone has their own needs in this regard. Going through life alone for a while is pleasant and important for many people. However, in Practice Love we also often see people with specific questions regarding being single. Questions about getting stuck and moving forward again. Our therapists are happy to help you with any questions or concerns you may be running with as a single person.

Individual therapy can help you when you are struggling and being single doesn’t feel so “happy” anymore. When it gets in your way or makes you gloomy. Or if you are looking for personal insight and want to learn more about yourself.

Purpose of counseling

The goal of counseling is for you to gain insight into your relationship patterns. This is how we begin a process of change so that you can be who you are. In doing so, we use a systems-based approach. This means looking at the influence of the system, such as your family and close friends. Systemic therapy is evidence-based; research shows that systemic therapy is effective.

How do we proceed?

After a no-obligation introduction, we begin counseling with an intake interview. In doing so, it is important that there is a mutual “click” so that you feel safe to share your story, thoughts and emotions with the therapist. In the follow-up sessions, we focus on:

  1. the request for help;
  2. patterns;
  3. goals;
  4. change desires.
Once we have these questions clear, five to eight sessions of 75 minutes each follow. After the intake, we evaluate the process and decide together whether to continue counseling.
