Teletherapy Counseling in Texas
Individual Counseling
Individual therapy focuses on the well-being of a person with empathic attention to an individual’s beliefs, goals, and intentional decision to live life abundantly. Clients work with the therapist on a one-to-one basis in a safe, caring, and confidential virtual environment. Through a greater understanding of an individual’s psychological domains - cognitive, developmental, social, emotional, spiritual and physiological - a truer understanding and healing of an individual’s unique character and a flourishing life can be attained.
Couples Counseling
Marital therapy helps couples to strengthen their relationship, understand and resolve conflicts, and improve their marriage. By focusing on the well-being of the couple, each person can gain insight into unhealthy thinking and emotions and resolve relationship issues, strengthen communication, consideration, and commitment to one another. Couples learn to forgive and heal from circumstances that negatively impact their marriage. A variety of therapeutic techniques are used to help the couple enhance their relationship, restore, and renew their marriage, and experience an abundant life together.
Grief Counseling
Grief Therapy focuses on understanding grief by moving through the stages of grief, understanding the symptoms, and having the knowledge that the process is circular, not linear. Healthy grieving integrates the experience of death into the present life. To approach grief means finding ways to cry and grow from your experience with tragedy. There will be ups and downs, feelings of being out of control, loneliness and isolation in grieving. Some days will be better, other days not. The hope is that you will be able to talk, smile, or laugh again at good memories.
Geriatric Counseling
Geriatric Therapy asssts individuals, couples and family with concerns that relate to the aging process. The aging process is not always easy. Sometimes the aging process can exacerbate mental illness. The types of issues might include retirement years, memory loss, illness, grief and loss of friends and family, and end-of-life concerns. As individuals enter their older years, they may fear the physical effects of aging such as impairments in hearing, vision, mobility, or loss of independence or dignity. Another major concern is what to do with the challenge of attending to basic needs when experiencing the adverse mental effects of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. Geriatric counseling provides psychological, emotional, and spiritual guidance and support to help navigate the aging process and have a positive impact on the well-being of the individual and the entire family.
Family Counseling
Family therapy focuses on resolving family conflicts and improving relationships between family members. As an integrated unit, the dynamics within a family affect each member. If a marriage is strong and family boundaries are healthy, then the family can function well. If it is not strong, then negative issues arise. The therapist meets virtually with the family to explore the various roles, expectations, and issues and teaches skills and tools to complement family roles, meet emotional needs, grow, and heal. Through family therapy, the family can integrate themselves into a healthy functioning unit to better deal with life’s challenges and to flourish as a family.
