Counseling Process

The counseling process takes into account the emotional, physical and spiritual dimensions of each individual.

Counseling sessions are normally 50 minutes in length unless otherwise arranged. During the initial session, you and your terapist will discuss the concerns that brought you here. Together, goals and treatment methods will be explored and a plan agreed upon. As goals and treatment places develop, the terapist will assist you in trying to foresee the consequineces of your choiuces. But whatever you choise, it will be your decision. Counseling can be a difficult, yet renewing and growth-filled expereince. It will help you learn what you can do now about the situations or feelings disrupting your life.

You can expedite treatment by providing information about yourself and your relationships. We can assist you best when we understand you and your world of experiences.

To help you achieve your goals, your therapist may suggest individual, couple or family counseling. Play therapy may be the treatment of choice for some children. Since the counseling process is based on a cooperative relationship, please raise any questions or uncertainties you have about counseling, such as the focus of treatment, what is expected of you, what you can expect from your therapist, treatment methods and how treatment ends.
