Frequently Asked Questions
What is counseling?

Counseling is an interactive process which may include one or more of the following:
• Identifying the problem and causes of the problem situation.
• Exploring thoughts, feelings, needs and goals.
• Increasing awareness, perspective, skills and self esteem.
• Considering the options for change.
• Making choices and taking action to resolve the problem.

How long does counseling take?

Each counseling session lasts from 50 to 60 minutes. The actual number of sessions depends on many factors, but it's up to our clients to determine how long the course of counseling continues. For some, the number of visits may be only one or two, for others there may be a need to pursue counseling on a longer term basis.
