There are times in life that when stress rises, our coping resources and skills run low.  Individual counseling is one component of the working throught such stressful times to bring back balance in daily functioning and relationship skills.

Over time, those who seek individual therapy can experience a significant reduction in stress responses and an increase in coping skills.   Mental health, substance abuse and prevention programs have been shown to lower health care costs, reduce and avert the use of alcohol and drugs, increase employment and reduce crime.   Addressing the mental health needs individually can have a positive impact on the life of the individual, the family and society.
