Why Counseling?

 The decision to begin counseling is an important one. Counseling may help you with a variety of concerns, including personal issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, grief or relationship problems. You can gain support in taking a more active role in what direction your career is taking. With counseling you can develop a more full understanding of your personal identity, and future.

In order to benefit fully from counseling, the following recommendations are offered:

  • Be specific about the concerns that led to your decision to seek counseling

  • Establish with your counselor desired goals for your work

  • Discuss your progress with your counselor as you go along

  • Participate actively, and be as open and honest as possible

  • Tell your counselor if you don't think you're being helped

 Successful counseling is a valuable endeavor that requires your commitment to the process.

The more actively involved you are, the more effective counseling will be for you.
