Is Counseling for Me?
Counseling or psychotherapy is working with a trained therapist in a safe, caring, and confidential environment that is tailored to your needs. Therapists work together with their clients to define and achieve their goals, help grow clients’ understanding about themselves and how they relate to others and learn how to maintain the growth they have achieved.
