We have the highest respect for every person who seeks counseling.
We know it takes courage to reach out and get help.
The first two to three sessions will involve in-depth assessment of your problem and your family system. We believe
that people learn how to be who they are, how to “do family” and how to have relationships with the opposite sex in
their families when they are growing up. In addition, the culture and traumatic adult events and relationships play an
important role in teaching us how to relate to others. Therefore, this initial assessment is very important to help you
learn more about yourself in the context of your culture and family. Although new insights will occur during this time,
a therapy plan and goal-setting will not occur until the assessment phase is complete. Until that time, the length and
depth of counseling cannot be determined. Usually clients are pleasantly surprised by the clear direction and
understanding gained during this assessment time, and they are empowered to focus on the defined therapy
direction and to work for change.
