Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any further questions please contact me.

If you are asking yourself this question, it is probably time. Seeking additional support to get through a difficult time is not a sign of weakness. Instead it demonstrates strength and courage and simply provides you with additional tools to address your concerns.

Counseling may be short or long, depending on individual needs. There is not a set amount of time you will need to commit to attending. Some issues may be resolved in only a few sessions, where some people find ongoing counseling a healthy way to keep themselves from falling into old patterns. The length of time that is appropriate will be discussed throughout the process and a decision will be made together when a client is ready to terminate services.
