How do I know if counseling is right for me?

Counseling can be beneficial for anyone seeking support, guidance, or personal growth.

Dr. Houston will listen attentively, help you explore your concerns, and work with you to identify goals, develop coping strategies, and support personal growth and healing.

How long does counseling take?

The duration of counseling varies depending on individual needs, goals, and the nature of the issues being addressed. Some clients may benefit from short-term counseling focused on specific goals or immediate concerns, while others may engage in longer-term therapy to explore deeper issues or achieve lasting change. Dr. Houston will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your needs and preferences.

Is counseling confidential?
