WHAT WE DO
Individual Counseling
Individual counseling is a joint process between a therapist and the client. The therapist and the client work together to create and work towards goals he or she has set. Sometimes issues can be hard to face alone, and we’re here to help.
The therapeutic process is not a linear process and there can be obstacles that are hard to overcome with support and encouragement these obstacles can be overcome. Therapy can also provide an increase in positive self-talk, insight and an overall sense of inner peace. People in therapy can learn coping skills for handling difficult situations, making healthier decisions, and reaching their goals.
Family Therapy
Family therapy focuses on building attachment and communication between members of the family. There are many stressful events that can put a strain on the relationships within the family such as financial hardship, divorce, or the death of a loved one. Our family counseling aims to promote communication and collaboration among family members in order to work towards the goal of the family.
Play Therapy for Children
Individual therapy for children looks different than it would for teens and adults. Children do not developmentally have the capacity to express and process events and emotions in his or her life. Play therapy was developed to give children the outlet to process inner turmoil they may have. The theorist who developed Play Therapy said “Play is the language and toys are the words.” I use that approach within my playroom with selected toys that hold a significant meaning behind them. Children are allowed to express themselves in a safe environment and play out essentially what is going on in their lives. Family Therapy is also encouraged with children to build the attachment with the caregiver at certain times.
