Private Practice Services

Individual Counseling

This process focuses on a single participant presenting for services with concerns related to a wide range of behavioral, emotional, or mental health issues. Goals are related to developing skills and strategies to enhance health and wellness, by improving the relationship with one’s self.

Family Counseling

Involves identified family members looking for an opportunity to address relational concerns and work towards long-term solutions. It is found that most individuals presenting for behavior, emotional or mental health complaints, eventually learn how the family of origin or current family dynamic can perpetuate the problem or substantially assist in resolving it. Therefore, family sessions are considered an integral part of individual counseling.

Group Counseling

Interactive and dynamic sessions are facilitated to meet the needs of multiple people that may share common problems. Groups provide opportunities for individuals to receive support, learn from each other, and increase motivation to change.

Bio-Pyscho-Social Assessment

This is a comprehensive clinical process that examines an individual’s functioning in all life domains. It involves collecting and analyzing data about an individual’s family and personal history, current functioning, barriers, goals, and desired outcomes. This helps to determine severity of need and appropriate level of treatment service provided.
