Frequently Asked Questions
Is something wrong with me?
This is a common belief and the most untrue. When someone seeks counseling, it
indicates a level of self-awareness. It takes a strong person with courage to seek
counseling.
There are times in life when we all need guidance. Counseling offers an objective
look at a continuing concern(s). Counseling provides aid in understanding the
realm of relationships, emotions, thoughts and behaviors.
What should I expect?
Counselors are trained to work with a wide variety of issues. Effective counselors
work with the client to determine what the client desires to gain from counseling.
Together the client and the counselor work towards accomplishing the set goals.
Is counseling worth the cost?
When we are struggling inside it usually affects every aspect of our life.
Nevertheless, depending on your income counseling can seem very expensive
and be a big investment. But it is exactly that, an investment. If you’re suffering
emotionally, the clarity, awareness and perspectives gained from effective
counseling is priceless.
Ultimately, what is it worth to you to end a struggle with yourself or your partner?
What if counseling just is not for me?
All therapists have different styles because all therapists are different people. It is
crucial to find one with whom you can connect. Maybe a counselor who is soft
spoken and nurturing is more suitable for you as opposed to one that is very direct
in his approach. Consider what you are looking for in a counselor and be sure to
discuss that up front.
