Individual Therapy in Bahrain, Without the 20-Week Wait.

Absolutely, many people see multiple therapists at the same time to work on different challenges, or they combine group therapy with individual therapy due to its complimentary benefits, or if they need more intensive and a higher frequency of care. So, it's totally up to you and it's common to see multiple therapists or do multiple therapy sessions at once. We're happy to discuss your specific situation to determine what makes sense for your care.

If you experience technical difficulties, first try refreshing your browser or reconnecting to your internet. If that doesn’t work, try a private browser, a different web browser, or try joining from another device. Your therapist will be there while you try to reconnect. If problems persist, contact our technical support team by emailing them at support@grouporttherapy.com. We can often resolve issues quickly. We also recommend testing your connection a couple of minutes before your session to prevent any issues.

No, therapy sessions are not allowed to be recorded for confidentiality reasons. However, if you want to remember specific exercises or coping skills from your session from material that is being referenced during the session, you can ask your therapist to have our administrative staff email you the resources after your appointment if the therapist is willing to provide such materials to email to you. Certain types of sessions, like our DBT groups, come with reading manuals that we universally provide and you can review on your own time at your own pace outside of sessions. You can also take notes during sessions.

Yes, therapy can definitely help you address self-esteem challenges. Your therapist will help you identify where the low self esteem is coming from and what are the right approaches whether cognitive, behavioral or psychodynamic in nature to address these recurring feelings that keep on holding you back. Online therapy will help you build genuine confidence over time. It will likely require deep work on your beliefs about yourself and isn’t a simple quick fix. You’ll learn how to identify these unhealthy thought patterns and challenge negative self-talk, so that you can have a healthier perspective on things. Most people notice improvement in their self-esteem within 3-6 months of consistent therapy.

This is normal, and many people worry about being judged at first. This fear is likely holding you back and may be even a barrier for you seeking therapy in the first place. Therapists are specifically trained to be non-judgemental and they hear about all kinds of challenges all day long. So rest assured that any adept therapist will meet you with compassion and empathy. You don’t have to open up about everything right away, but you will go at your own pace and build trust over time. Being vulnerable in therapy is one of the many benefits that leads to sustained progress over time rather than keeping everything bottled up, so it's important to have someone you can trust to speak with and that they can provide professional guidance to you to help navigate all kinds of challenging situations.

Yes, many people continue therapy as part of their wellness routine. You don’t just stop going to the gym after you see results, but it's typically about how can you maintain the consistency to see sustained results over time. Many people continue with ongoing support to prevent relapse and work on personal growth, or to manage chronic conditions. So you can continue therapy for as long as you're benefiting and the duration at which you partake in therapy is totally a personal decision. Your therapy or treatment plan can likely change over time, and the topics that you're focusing on can certainly be different at different junctures. So trust what’s best for you, and if you want your therapist to weigh in on whether you should continue, stop, or do something different they can absolutely be a sounding board to discuss that through with you and help you make an informed decision.

Each 45-minute one-on-one video session with your licensed clinician is $103 per session on average, billed at $448 per month, or $224 per month for every-other-week.

Grouport Individual Therapy is a clinical service delivered by licensed psychologists, LCSWs, LMHCs, LMFTs, LPCs, and PsyDs, not a wellness or alternative-medicine offering.

Grouport adds an evidence-based option: 45-minute weekly HIPAA-compliant video sessions delivered in English at $103 per session on average, billed at $448 per month, with a therapist match and immediate session start after intake.
