Counseling Services
Here, at Path to Light Counseling, therapy is tailored to the needs of the individual. I often use a combination of CBT, MI, TF-CBT, and Matrix Model intervention tools and techniques. I believe therapy should be very interactive and engaging so that the therapeutic process becomes a true agent of change. Together, we will uncover the hidden obstacles and challenges that dismantle our healthy way of living.
Adolescent Counseling
We offer individual counseling services to adolescents, ages 13-17, that are experiencing various concerns like anxiety, depression, academic stressors, or other trauma-related concerns.
Adult Counseling
Our Adult Counseling services are for anyone ages 18-65, where we address most anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and relationship concerns. Currently, we do not provide couples or marriage counseling.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is at the core of almost all the therapy utilized here at Path To Light Counseling. It is often used in conjunction with other therapeutic tools and techniques, such as Motivational Interviewing and Matrix Model, as we address unhealthy habits, cognitive distortions, and emotional turmoil.
Therapy for Trauma & Abuse
We take extra measures to ensure that we are trauma-informed in all our practices, especially when addressing concerns that stem from experienced trauma and abuse. Many practices and techniques from trainings in Trauma-Focused CBT are utilized to help individuals develop coping skills and manage debilitating thoughts and emotions.
Mindfulness Practices
Mindfulness is often practiced while in session and encouraged to be utilized in one's own daily life. It is the intentional practice of living in the present moment and aids in the reduction of stress and anxiety for most individuals.
Resources and Referrals
We often find much added benefit in engaging in available resources in the community, so it can also be a therapeutic component for counseling. Additionally, if there is ever an issue that requires services that are beyond our practice, we will do our best to assist with a referral to ensure continuity of care.
