Professional Counseling

Professional counseling is an opportunity to receive individualized support for challenges in life and relationships. The goal of counseling is to be empowered to lead a more fulfilling and productive life. Counseling provides the space to identify goals and chart a path toward growth for topics such as:

​

• Adjusting to major life changes such as a new life stage, betrayal in an intimate relationship, divorce, or the loss of a loved one.

• Addressing relationship patterns that are distressing and feel out of control.

• Creating boundaries around commitments, relationships, and time.

• Developing strategies for addressing personal challenges like depression, anxiety, negative thinking, or having an overloaded life.

• Defining life, career, or personal goals and the plans needed to meet those goals.

 

Some tips to get the most out of counseling:

• Recognize that doing inner work takes both emotional and physical energy.

• Commit to practicing new skills; this will impact how much growth you experience.

• Practice active reflection – writing down key points from sessions, journaling, pondering questions and emotions that come up during and between sessions.

• Consider what you would like your life to look like – counseling is not all about stopping a behavior or adjusting to a situation, it is about growing, becoming, and maturing.
