Counseling Readiness Group

Sometimes clients may request therapeutic services but either find that they were not quite prepared for the process of therapy or they are having a difficult time making a connection with their therapist.  This can result in missed appointments, which not only hinders any progress that the client could be making but prevents us from efficiently serving all the consumers requesting our services.

We believe that clients who are experiencing multiple missed appointments are simply not fully engaged in their treatment.  We have created a Counseling Readiness group based on Motivational Interviewing techniques, which are designed to identify where a client is in their own change process and help them move forward, thus becoming more engaged and invested in the outcome of treatment. Once the client has completed the brief curriculum of the group, a return to individual services may be implemented.  Some clients may be referred directly to the group as well, without ever attending individual therapy, simply because this group's content may be exactly the treatment that is needed.
