Compassionate care: A foundation of positive regard

Person Centered Therapy -

• Unconditional positive regard: The counselor accepts and supports you without judgment. This trust and acceptance create a safe space where you can be authentic and honest without fear of criticism.

• Empathy: The therapist genuinely strives to understand your feelings and experiences from your perspective.

• Congruence: The therapist is genuine and transparent in the relationship, acting as a real person rather than an authority figure. This authenticity helps build a strong, trusting bond.

You steer the way, you set the cadence:

• You are the expert: You are the most knowledgeable person about your own life and experiences. The counseling is non-directive, meaning the therapist doesn't tell you what to do or offer their own interpretations.

• Pacing is personal: You decide the pace of your therapy. This means you can delve deeply into issues or take your time, depending on your comfort level. The therapist follows your lead, allowing for natural, unforced self-discovery and growth.

• Focus is flexible: At the start of each session, you decide what topics are most important to discuss. This approach respects your intuition and ensures that the counseling remains focused on what you genuinely need at any given moment.

We are here to guide you along the way: The therapist's role

While the client leads, the counselor's role is far from passive.

• Facilitating self-discovery: By listening actively and reflecting your thoughts, the therapist helps you explore your feelings and gain new insights. They serve as a sounding board, helping you to clarify your own perceptions and find your own solutions.

• Empowering you: Rather than providing answers, the guidance offered helps you build trust in your own decision-making abilities. The ultimate goal is to empower you to rely on your own inner wisdom and potential for personal growth.

• Providing a roadmap: For many people, starting therapy is an intimidating first step. The counselor's guidance helps make this journey less daunting by providing a supportive and predictable process, ensuring you are never alone in your exploration.
