What is Counseling?
Counseling is a collaborative effort between the counselor and the client.
Professional counselors help clients identify goals and potential solutions to problems which cause emotional turmoil; seek to improve communication and coping skills; strengthen self-esteem; and promote behavior change and optimal mental health.
Marriage Counseling
Marriage counseling, also called couples therapy, is a type of psychotherapy. Marriage counseling helps couples of all types recognize and resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. Through marriage counseling, you can make thoughtful decisions about rebuilding and strengthening your relationship
and avoid the worst which is divorce.
Youth Counseling
Youth counseling provides an opportunity to work one-on-one or in a group with other young people in similar situations along with a counselor to recovering from an upsetting experience, explore thoughts and feelings, or for guidance and support when dealing with a difficult issue.
Each counseling experience is unique just as every individual is unique. What happens in counseling sessions depends on the unique needs and contributions of the individual(s) seeking help.
Geriatric Counseling
Geriatric or gerontological, counselors help individuals and families with issues related to the aging process. Areas of concern include everything from the retirement transition clear through to the end of life. One of the central issues that the elderly must cope with is the loss. Most people get their first experience with death as children. However, people deal with death much more frequently in their senior years. Particularly difficult are the losses of spouse and lifelong friends.
