WHAT TO EXPECT

Psychotherapy Services Process

Hightop Health uses the following approach to assess patient needs and deliver personalized Psychotherapy Services:

1

INTAKE & EVALUATION

Patients meet with a medical provider for an intake evaluation to determine whether Psychotherapy is an appropriate treatment and to discuss specific methods of psychotherapy based on the individual’s needs.

2

TREATMENTS

Patients typically start with weekly psychotherapy sessions, with sessions increasing or decreasing in frequency depending on the patient’s individual needs, preferences, and progress.

3

MAINTENANCE

Treatment plans are specifically tailored to each patient’s unique journey and response to therapy. Some patients continue ongoing therapy to maintain long-term well-being, while others may stop after addressing a more specific, short-term issue.

HOW IT WORKS

Understanding Psychotherapy Services

Psychotherapy is known to be an effective treatment for a variety of mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety. By engaging individuals in conversations with a licensed therapist to explore and address troubling emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, patients can gain lasting relief from symptoms, improve daily functioning, and enhance their overall quality of life long-term.

Psychotherapy can also be combined with various traditional and innovative treatments to achieve optimal results. Medications may alleviate symptoms, while psychotherapy helps individuals address the underlying issues and learn long-term coping strategies. This combination can be particularly effective for conditions such as major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders, providing a more comprehensive approach to treatment​.

Assessing each individual’s needs and goals is crucial for effective therapy. Our highly trained therapists consider factors like the severity of symptoms, personal history, and specific mental health conditions to tailor each treatment approach on a case-by-case basis. Hightop Health’s Psychotherapy Services are culturally competent, gender affirming, and inclusive of patients of all races and ethnicities, spiritual beliefs, and all other socioeconomic identities.

Some examples of types of psychotherapy we tailor to include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), insight-oriented psychotherapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, family-focused therapy, and trauma-informed therapies. Hightop Health’s approach to psychotherapy emphasizes personalized care through evidence-based methods to ensure comprehensive and holistic mental health care tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. This integrative strategy enhances long-term healing and well-being by addressing the root cause, considering the full spectrum of mental health challenges, and providing an appropriate treatment plan​.

Psychotherapy requires hard work and may sometimes feel uncomfortable as effective therapists challenge patients to identify their maladaptive patterns and develop healthier new ones. Devotion to sticking with that process is often necessary to produce the best outcomes. Hightop Health’s therapists expect that there will be challenging times and are dedicated to supporting their patients while pushing them to grow during sessions.
