INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

This is the first step in the therapy process and required of all individuals prior to participating in an individual or family therapy session. This initial session involves music or art activities as well as client or parent/guardian interviews as the therapist assesses each individual's strengths and needs. Following the evaluation, your therapist will sit down with you to discuss their findings. They will confirm strengths and areas of need observed in an evaluation report. In addition, they will discuss their recommended treatment plan. A treatment plan outlines the specific goals and objectives for an individual. Session duration and frequency are determined during the initial therapy evaluation session. Once therapy begins, your therapist will keep track of progress on goals and add goals as needed or recommend termination of services. The providers at the Sonatina Center provide reports of progress for all clients on a quarterly basis.
