The Counseling Process

Professional Counseling

Relational Advantage, Inc. provides professional individual, marriage and family counseling.  We all know that life can be extremely challenging at times, and that it can be very difficult to face these challenges alone.  If you are struggling with the painful emotions associated with depression, relational problems, a significant loss or unmanageable stress, counseling can help you get back on track and begin enjoying life again! 

According to a survey conducted by Consumer Reports, nine out of ten Americans who had received counseling said that psychotherapy has helped them.  Our goal is to provide you with the highest quality of treatment while utilizing effective solution-focused counseling methods designed to help you discover and apply real answers to your life challenges as soon as possible. 

We offer help for…

•    Marriage and Parenting Issues
•    Depression and Anxiety
•    Stress and Burnout
•    General Relationship Problems
•    Workplace Conflict
•    Career Transitions
•    Grief and Loss
•    Divorce Recovery

•    Pre-Marital Preparation

Initially, the counseling process involves an assessment phase that often includes a clinical interview, questionnaires, surveys and personality inventories.  During this phase, you and your counselor will work together to identify specific goals that will guide the therapy process. 

Through counseling many individuals and couples gain better understanding of themselves and their relationships as well as learn how to make better decisions, communicate more effectively and manage emotions more consistently.
