Your Therapy
People
begin counseling/therapy for many different reasons as well as for mental
disorders and mental illness. For some, it may be as simple as wanting
the opportunity to focus inward, for better self understanding and personal
growth. For others it may be a tool for relief and support in getting
through a difficult period in their lives.
Counseling can help people through crisis, upheaval
or loss of control over their lives. People grieving for loved ones
lost through death or distance, divorce or betrayal can be helped in
their transitions to wholeness through counseling. Depression, anxiety,
stress, and relationship problems can wreak havock on just about every
area of our lives. Maybe you keep making the same mistakes in your life,
or choosing the wrong people to have relationships with. Or maybe you
don't even know what is wrong. These are good reasons to seek counseling.
In therapy, the focus is on you. On getting your needs
met whatever you deem them to be. Everyone wants to feel heard, cared
about and understood. Counseling is very much a learning process. Learning
to control anxiety and stress. Managing and lifting depression. It can
be about learning to listen and to communicate for connection with friends
and loved ones. It can help with parenting too. We will talk together
about your particular concerns and set some goals for therapy.
