When to seek one-on-one counseling

When should I seek help?

The goal of one-on-one counseling is to help patients grow, prosper, and live a healthy life.

Everyone experiences tough moments at different points. Some patients may deal with specific problems such as work stress, relationship issues, the death of a loved one, etc. Others may experience times in their life where they just don’t feel like their usual selves.

If you've tried coping on your own but these issues continue, seeing a counselor can help.

What can I expect?

A counselor will gather your basic information during your first several therapy sessions.

You will discuss your past mental and physical health history, as well as the reason you are seeking help.

This is a time for the counselor to get to know you and determine the best course of treatment.

Therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), or other specific therapies may be suggested, depending on what you need.
