A licensed counselor will listen to what challenges you are facing and then provide guidance on how you can work through them. Some issues that people might seek out a counselor for include, but are not limited to, anxiety, anger, grief, depression, trauma and more. Individual counseling also can help with becoming a better communicator, improving concentration, boosting self-esteem and self-compassion, and resolving family issues.
Group Therapy
Under the supervision of a licensed counselor, group therapy allows people with similar challenges to get together in a safe space to talk through their thoughts and feelings. Groups can act as a support system, an accountability partner, and a sounding board for members who are working through a problem.
Psychiatry
In some cases, medication is needed as part of a mental health plan. The client and therapist will work together to determine whether or not medication is the right choice. A psychiatrist will prescribe and then follow up with the client over time to assure the medication is beneficial.
Drug & Alcohol Counseling
Drug and alcohol use affects the whole family. The comprehensive program includes drug and alcohol use intervention, assessment, counseling, and education. It is especially designed for youth and families.
