Starting therapy can be an intimidating process. Many people think they have to be in crisis or the intensity of an issue has to be so bad that they need to go to counseling. But in reality, individuals can use counseling to assist with a desired goal or to seek support and validation during a stressful life event. We seek to challenge and assist our clients in reaching their personal goals in a nonjudgmental and open environment.
Some individuals may be returning to counseling after they have had a previous counselor they have worked with. We believe in utilizing the traits you appreciated about your previous counselor or perhaps incorporating new characteristics that you did not feel comfortable with. Regardless, we’re happy to learn about your experience and assist you in determining what you hope this counseling experience will be like for you.
Incorporating the right treatment modality can assist in helping clients meet their desired goals. Some treatment theories we pull from include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Mindfulness and Acceptance
- Solution-Focused Therapy
- Reality Therapy
- Client-Centered Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
- Family Systems Theory
