Growth comes in different forms.

Individual

Individual therapy is an opportunity for you to identify, understand and connect. Identify areas in your life and your relationships where you experience the most distress. Understand more about yourself through counseling, and how to relate to others through learning how to feel. Connect within your relationships by sharing your feelings and emotions. This growth in yourself and how to relate to others helps create stable and healthy relationships, whether it is with your spouse, parent, child, friend, or coworker. DA Counseling uses an interpersonal and process-oriented approach to counseling, which is research-based with a theoretical foundation. This provides for an effective treatment plan and long-term goals. DA Counseling accepts individuals from ages 6 and older.

Couples

DA Counseling provides couples counseling with a focus on teaching and training in communication, as well as counseling through specific issues, such as infidelity, finances, parenting children, caregiving for older parents, etc. Couples counseling is essential when two people decide to spend the rest of their lives together. Pre-marital, preventative, or crisis-oriented counseling can occur for couples. We believe communication is key and the place to begin in counseling. Most couples wait too long to seek counseling to help repair their relationship, but that does not mean the relationship cannot be saved. There is hope for your relationship - couples counseling can bring back the skills of communication to become a more healthy and complete couple.

Groups

Group therapy is a powerful way to address many of your individual needs. Research has shown that group therapy is equal to or greater than individual therapy because it presents more opportunities to challenge your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in your life. Our groups utilize an interpersonal process approach to bring a mixed group of individuals with varying presenting concerns. Through this group, we all begin to connect on an emotional and interpersonal level, rather than simply for support. Change for each individual is the goal and the group becomes more cohesive to aid each individual reach that potential.
