What is counseling?
At times, we feel stressed-out, depressed, angry, anxious, or confused. Sometimes these problems gradually go away on their own or they get better with the support of our friends and family. However, there are other times when these problems can cause major disruptions in our lives and/or they are too difficult to talk about with our family and friends. It is at these times when one should seek out professional help.In general, counseling is a process where a trained professional helps someone deal with problems related to personal, career, relationship, marriage and family concerns.
The client collaborates with the counselor to define problems he/she wishes to address and to find solutions to these problems. Although, one's experience in counseling will vary depending on that person's unique goals, some of the things you can expect from counseling include:
- Talking with someone who will listen without criticism or
judgment
- Talking with someone who will keep what you say private
and confidential
- Establishing a positive, trusting relationship with a
professional focused on making meaningful changes in your
life
- Learning to gain greater control over your thoughts and
feelings
- Identifying your concerns and exploring new ways to deal
with them
Most people come to counseling sessions once per week for about 60 minutes. During these sessions, the counselor and the client will continuously collaborate on the goals of the client, monitor the progress toward these goals, modify goals if necessary, and work toward positive changes.
