Counseling provides a space to explore how you’re feeling, find peace with past experiences, and move forward with confidence. The counseling experience is a deeply personal time to navigate how you want to live an authentic life that’s driven by your values. Counseling can make life feel a little less stressful and bit more hopeful. The value of having time each week to have a professional bear witness to your story is exactly what we all need right now. CARE Counseling appointments are being held from the comfort of your home via telehealth. If you are struggling, you’re not alone - CARE Counseling can help.
