Asking for help is a sign of strength. We encourage patients to ask for help if:

You constantly worry
You feel trapped
You aren't getting any better with self-help
You feel as if you can't handle things alone
You have an untreated problem with substance use disorder
Your feelings are affecting your job, relationships or sleep or eating habits

If you have thoughts of suicide, seek medical attention right away by calling 911. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline hotline is also available 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255.

Individual Psychotherapy or Counseling

Psychotherapy is designed to help people solve emotional, behavioral or relationship problems. The goal might be to stop or reduce symptoms, such as a phobia or feelings of sadness or anxiety. Another goal may be to improve how you function in relationships or work. Also sometimes referred to as "talk therapy," clients work one-on-one with a trained mental health provider. Services available include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, supportive psychotherapy and dynamic therapy.

Group Psychotherapy

In addition to individual psychotherapy, help is is available in a group setting for both adults and children.

Couples Counseling

Couples counseling can be an important tool in resolving conflict in your relationship and help you better understand each other's feelings in a safe, neutral environment. Common issues addressed during couples counseling may include communication problems, conflicts about money issues, conflicts about raising children, infidelity, substance use, step-parenting, conflicting expectations or sexual problems.

Family Counseling

Family counseling is an opportunity to address issues that are affecting the entire family, such as addiction, depression or other behavioral problems. It is also useful in dealing with family-wide problems, such as conflicts between family members.
