COUNSELING IS A PROCESS


Counseling helps to identify underlying problems, assess sources of hidden conflict and pinpoint areas for personal and relationship growth. It provides a framework for exploring your feelings and gaining awareness of yourself as an individual, or discovering the dynamics in our marital or family relationships. It provides an opportunity to explore and accept yourself, and an opportunity for understanding and developing your personal potential and building resources within yourself and others.

GETTING STARTED


In the initial assessment interview you will be able to talk about your concerns and receive information about Carpe Diem Counseling. In addition to helping focus your concerns, your counselor will gather background information and discuss how to proceed. The goal of his counseling practice is to provide you with the tools you need for a great life!

CONFIDENTIAL


All counseling conversations and counseling records are held to the highest HIPA regulations.

When appropriate, pastoral counselors do work closely with mental health professionals, with church pastors and other community agencies to ensure that those who come for counseling receive all the help they require.


CLINICAL INTEGRITY


It is important for those who provide clinical services that the beliefs of those they are helping be respected and included as part of the counseling process. Individual beliefs are utilized as part of the recovery process.

We believe that a harmonious integration of the spiritual. Emotional, physical and learning dimensions leads to the most rewarding life.
