Dear Friend's and Client's,
It is our belief that most everyone may benefit from individual counseling and psychotherapy to develop
greater insights for learning more about yourself and your relationship dynamics.
In my view, the counseling process
should stimulate new coping mechanisms that are important to a sense of well being and so forth.
On the other hand, psychotherapy is a more targeted treatment of a symptom, issue or problem utilizing
a variety of scientific principles and techniques with the goal of inducing a change in thinking or behavior or for
the reduction of those symptoms towards stabilization and beyond.
These psychologically related symptoms have apparently
caused various emotional reactions that can significantly affect an individual's ability for high level functioning, communication
and the general pursuit of happiness.
Oftentimes, people get depressed and discouraged due to situations and circumstances
or have been traumatized in the past. Perhaps,most commonly people become depressed over relationships or related disapointments
and losses.Frequently,drugs and alcohol complicate matters for various physical and psychological reasons and sometimes require
detoxification under medical supervision.
There are other people who are physically ill and have been prescribed various
medications that have not helped or made things worse and as such require a reevaluation by competent specialized physicians.
In these situations a second or even a third opinion is indicated.
In the past,many other's have already attempted
counseling, psychotherapy and medicines and have become more discouraged, hopeless and/or suicidal.
Obviously, in a
time of crisis, it is generally not advisable to attempt to make important life or death decisions,since confusion agitation,
anxiety and severe depression are amongst the symptoms that can interfere with proper thinking or decision making processes.
We
are very interested in assisting and supporting such individuals in making important assessments about their special situations,
so that we can collectively determine those specialized services or treatment options that may be available at this special
and pivitol time of need or perhaps a time of desperation.?
However,should your situation become so urgent or an emergency
that you simply cannot wait to consult with one of our licenced mental health professionals then we respectfully suggest that
you contact 911 for emergencies and recontact us at
a later time.
Whatever your situation may be,our staff at the National Suicide Prevention are commited personally and
professionally to finding positive solutions and outcomes.
