Our Approach to Counseling.
The Basics…
Our family and marriage counselors/therapists practice side by side, sharing knowledge and supporting one another.
We offer an extensive range of counseling services and fields of knowledge.
Counseling Services or Modalities.
Each of these different groups that seek counseling demand a unique skill set from a counselor.
In the therapy world, the different types of counseling for these groups is called “Modalities.”
There are counselors that work with multiple modalities and others who specialize in one.
In general most counselors will work with individuals and possibly one more modality. But note, individuals are a modality in and of their own right!
Children and adolescents typically come in individually but they are considered their own modality. The same holds true for all possible subgroup categories of “individuals” i.e. drug and alcohol, adults, geriatric, etc.
- Counselors share knowledge and support one another.
- Counselors work with multiple modalities or specialize in one.
