Who We Are
At Counseling Works, our approach to therapy is to work in the moment, the here and now. We focus on the issues that have brought the client into treatment, and we work together with the client to create immediate goals that will provide the ability to move forward through life with confidence.
O U R G O A L & S T R A T E G Y
Our goal is to help provide our clients with a greater understanding of why their presentday struggles exist and to uncover contributing factors from the broader tapestry of their life and history. Our strategy is to work to strike a balance in their life, one in which they are able to create concrete goals. We help with many of life’s challenges such as:
- Relationship Issues
