What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is characterized by a series of private and
confidential meetings with a therapist. These can
last from a few weekly meetings to a few years, depending
on the problem and your expectations. An important factor
in successful therapy is that you feel good about your therapist
and view him/her as a trustworthy, caring, non-judgmental,
healthy, and competent person who truly understands your
issues.

Divorce and Separation Counseling
This type of counseling helps individuals and couples deal with the
emotional issues inherent in dissolving a relationship. Separation counseling
can help you learn from your relationship so that some of the same mistakes can
be avoided in the future.
Crisis Counseling
Crisis Counseling is problem-centered for those dealing with immediate, short-term
discomfort caused by some external event or life transition. This type of counseling
is often short-term with the goal of providing objective recommendations for
assisting you through this difficult time.
If you want to make your life happier and healthier, the first step is
to recognize there is something you need to change, and call an experienced
provider.
