Individual Outpatient Therapy
Personal counseling is a chance to talk over issues that are important to you with an objective person who has professional training in helping people work through current situations and learn about dealing with similar situations in the future. Some of the problems that people discuss with counselors include relationship problems, academic/school related problems, depression, anxiety, trauma, and issues from the past that negatively affect the person's daily functioning.
Most people go to counseling because they want help with specific problems. Many have talked to friends and family about these problems but are unable to improve things adequately on their own. Counseling provides a safe place in which to talk about issues and generate some useful solutions.
Life/Personal/Relationship Coaching
Coaching is a catalyzing relationship that accelerates the process of great performances; it's about individuals' identifying purpose and living out of that purpose. When people are actively seeking meaning and solutions, they value partnership and support that assists them in accomplishing their goals and objectives.
Recovery Coach
Recovery coach sessions are typically provided to patients who suffer from eating disorders and work with another outpatient therapist. Recovery Coach sessions include shopping outings, cooking sessions in-home, grocery shopping, eating out, etc.
