Who Can Benefit From Therapy?
There are various psychotherapy approaches, each tailored to specific problems or issues. In individual therapy, a patient engages in one-on-one sessions with a therapist, creating a personalized and confidential space for exploration and healing. This contrasts with group therapy, couples therapy, or family therapy, where interactions with both the therapist and other participants play a role. Therapists employ diverse styles and methods based on their expertise and the unique needs of each patient.

Child and adolescent mental health services are tailored to meet the unique emotional and developmental needs of young individuals. These services provide age-appropriate interventions to address the challenges that children and adolescents may face in their mental and emotional well-being.
Conditions That Can Be Treated Through Therapy
Whether you know that you live with a chronic mental illness or you’re not sure what’s causing your symptoms, you can find hope here. Below are a few of the most common conditions we treat.
Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect a person’s attention, impulsivity, memory, and other cognitive functions. While it is often diagnosed in childhood, ADHD can affect people well into adulthood.
LifeStance Health offers comprehensive treatment plans for people with ADHD. Depending on the patient’s needs, this may include medication management as well as a variety of therapy types.
Many healthy people experience anger on a regular basis. It helps people process traumatic events and even small, everyday problems. When someone has an excess of uncontrolled anger, however, they may have an anger disorder. Anger disorders are often comorbid with other untreated mental disorders.
There are several types of therapy that can help those with an anger disorder. While some patients may benefit from one, others may benefit from participating in several different therapies.
People with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) cannot stop themselves from worrying constantly about common situations. They worry about things like work, health, family, and money, but can literally worry about anything.
A patient may need therapy, Anxiety Medication Management, or a combination of both to start feeling better. Psychotherapy treatments for GAD include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Bipolar disorder causes manic moods in which patients become so manic that they stop taking care of the basic things in life, ignoring work, family, and even money. Manic stages can involve impulsive behavior that puts the individual and those around him at risk.
These patients also experience stages of deep depression, the polar opposite of their manic behaviors. Depressive stages can involve suicidal ideation and put patients at risk, as well.
Depression, bipolar disorders, or seasonal affective disorder can affect a person’s mood in a way that negatively impacts your life. Based on the available research, the mental health community estimates that 80 percent of people with depression feel better when seeking treatment.
In some cases, depression lifts when the patient heals from the traumatic event that caused it. People who have chemical imbalances that cause depression often feel better with the right combination of treatments.
Disordered Eating describes a variety of abnormal eating behaviors such as restrictive eating, fasting, compulsive overeating, excessive exercising, or irregular or rigid eating patterns that can be harmful to you both physically and psychologically.
The diagnosis of an Eating Disorder typically involves a comprehensive assessment conducted by a healthcare professional, such as a psychiatrist, psychologist, or a specialized eating disorder clinician.
People in this community experience high rates of certain mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders, traumatic disorders, and depression. Discrimination in various settings is a major contributor to this problem.
The antidote is for people in the LGBTQIA+ community to have safe, inclusive spaces and supportive people in their lives. Affirmation is the best treatment for gender dysphoria, and it can come in a variety of ways. The methods of affirmation that help one person may not help someone else.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition that causes patients to fixate on smaller aspects of life in an outsized way. These fixations interfere with the individual’s quality of life and ability to execute regular daily tasks.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that people sometimes develop in response to a traumatic event. Some people with PTSD think that they can never recover because of the trauma they have experienced.
LifeStance Health wants you to know that there is hope. Mental health care providers can help you reduce your symptoms of PTSD, improve your mood, and even make a full recovery.
Substance Use Disorder (SUD), also known as drug addiction or drug dependence, is a treatable mental health condition that affects over 20 million people in the USA alone. This condition alters behavior and thinking patterns, causing individuals to lose control over how they take certain substances.
If you are struggling with your relationship with substances, there is no need to suffer in silence. Seeking professional help might seem overwhelming, but trained SUD professionals at LifeStance are there to support you.
Telehealth Options For Therapy And Psychiatry
There are many barriers to finding and using mental health services, including transportation, mobility, and local availability. We offer telehealth services because we believe that everyone who needs mental health services should be able to get them.
In many cases, people can be diagnosed and treated through virtual appointments, known as telehealth. Online therapy and psychiatry options allow patients to fit anxiety treatment into their schedules. Studies have shown that mental health care can be just as effective through online appointments as in-person visits. Our telehealth appointments are HIPAA-compliant and safe as well.
For your appointment, you will need to have access to a private place and a computer/tablet/smartphone with a camera and a high-speed internet connection. LifeStance will provide you with access to a secure HIPAA compliant videoconferencing software free of charge. All you need to do is be logged on your device at the time of your appointment. We will send you directions on how to log in after you set up and confirm your appointment.
