Vision
All people will have access to life enriching counseling and wellness services to help achieve their full potential, improve health and well-being, strengthen communities, and improve quality of life for all.
Behavioral and mental health are vital components of overall health and well-being. People with positive behavioral and mental health have effective coping skills, strong interpersonal relationships, make healthy lifestyle choices, work to achieve goals, feel good about life, and contribute to society.
Stressful life experiences, chronic medical conditions, biological factors, and feelings of loneliness can contribute to poor behavioral and mental health (CDC, 2019). Depression, anxiety, grief, and reactions to traumatic events (including PTSD) are some of the most common and uncomfortable behavioral and mental health challenges that we can experience at some point in our lives.
Through counseling/therapy, we can help you heal emotional wounds, recover motivation, gain a more helpful perspective, develop effective coping skills, and achieve a high quality of life.
Our career is often one of the most important aspects of our adult lives. Finding your way as a professional or student can be stressful. Over time that stress may begin to affect other areas of your life.
Perhaps things are going well. You enjoy your career or education path, but you are ready to take it to the next level. Counseling and therapy can help you gain clarity on where you see yourself in the future. We often use solution-focused brief therapy to assist with setting goals, developing a plan to achieve those goals, and building skills to execute that plan successfully.
Through career counseling/therapy, we can help you achieve your professional and academic goals by clarifying career values, assessing strengths, developing a career path and plan, assisting in identifying and overcoming obstacles, and creating a healthy work-life balance.
The quality of our relationships affects both short- and long-term physical, behavioral, and mental health (Umberson & Montez, 2011). Couples and family counseling and therapy can help advance the quality of these relationships and boost overall satisfaction.
Couples and family counseling and therapy can also help when dealing with a stressful event like a financial hardship, wedding planning, death of a loved one, or a separation or divorce. In couples and family counseling and therapy, the couple or family is the "client," and the focus is on helping the couple or family improve the functioning of the relationship.
Through couples and family counseling/therapy, we can help increase understanding, promote effective communication, develop problem-solving and collaboration skills, and strengthen feelings of connectedness and security. Our supportive, non-judgmental, and unbiased approach to counseling and therapy can help enrich and maintain these essential relationships.
Your generous support and contributions are tax-deductible and allow us to provide sliding scale counseling/therapy services to help individuals and families achieve their full potential, improve health and well-being, and strengthen our communities.
