Plano Counseling Solutions

I do a clinical interview in the first session to assess what the client is feeling, what the issues are, and to develop treatment goals that meet the client's needs.  Sessions focus on exploring feelings, improving communication, managing stress, reducing anxiety or depression, and overcoming obstacles in the client's life.  I see teenagers and adults, individuals, couples, and families.

Adults and teenagers as individuals, couples, or families.

 In choosing a therapist, a client should find someone that they feel confortable talking to - as well as someone who is experienced in dealing with the client's problem areas.

Clients should focus on what issues they want to dicuss and work through.  They should also consider whether they are willing to make changes in their lives to improve their life satisfaction.
