How do I schedule an appointment?To begin meeting with a therapist, you must first schedule an intake appointment. An intake is an opportunity to discuss your presenting concerns with a therapist based on your needs. In session, your counselor will likely ask questions about your mental health history, family, background, and current functioning, to develop the most appropriate plan with you. An intake appointment typically lasts 45-60 minutes. You can schedule an appointment online by clicking on the "request an appointment" link, by submitting a "contact us" online message or by calling our office at 419-633-3333.

What can I expect from counseling?The counseling relationship is a unique one, accompanied by certain rights, responsibilities, and protections. For those considering counseling, this section provides an overview of the counseling process: what to expect from counseling, what your role is in counseling, and what the guidelines are concerning confidentiality. You will be working with a licensed professional counselor, who is trained to provide a range of therapeutic services for children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. You can expect to meet with someone who is interested in listening to your concerns and in helping you develop a better understanding of them so that you may deal with them more easily and effectively. Because counselors have different strategies as to how to assist you, they may differ on how much talking they do in sessions, whether they ask you to do homework, and their focus of discussion. If you have any questions about your therapy, by all means ask. Your counselor will maintain strict confidentiality except under unusual circumstances. If you have any questions about the limits of confidentiality, please bring them up with your counselor. Within the context of the therapeutic relationship (the professional relationship between the client and the therapist), you have certain responsibilities that when adhered to, may help you work more effectively toward meeting your therapeutic goals. Therapy is an interactive process and in order for therapy to be successful, you will need to provide complete accurate information, attend regularly scheduled sessions and work on things being discussed. Please communicate with your counselor about any improvements (or not) you become aware of regarding your concerns. Your feedback is important and can help your counselor adapt his/her approach to better meet your needs.
