Our Approach to Counseling

What does Counseling look like?

Because everyone is unique and every situation is unique, counseling is a different experience for each person involved. In general, the therapist helps a person work through the problem rather than giving simplistic answers. While some problems do not require many visits, others may require much more time.

Counseling is concerned with the psychological, social, spiritual, and biological aspects of human behavior. If there is a reason to suspect a significant biological problem, medication or other medical treatment may be recommended. Successful therapy works best when the therapist and client work together. Openness about oneself and one’s relationships, including the relationship with the therapist, is an important part of the therapy process. Every therapy session is strictly confidential and no information is given to anyone without written permission.

Many people are searching for help in dealing with psychological, emotional, or interpersonal difficulties that they have not been able to resolve on their own. These difficulties may involve marital or family relationships or may be personal. Some seek guidance because they face important crossroads and decisions in their lives, or an unexpected crisis. Some people seek therapy because they want to grow and mature. Our clients will find an atmosphere of genuine care and concern backed by extensive training and experience.
