Mental Health Counseling
What is Mental Health Counseling?
Mental health counseling embraces the services provided by trained professionals to clients who seek help in dealing with issues that affect their lives. Issues may include, but are not limited to, behavioral, emotional, marital, vocational, rehabilitative, educational or life-stage in nature as well as personal problems. Mental health counseling involves evaluating clients’ mental and physical states, identifying diagnosis, and determining how ready clients are for treatment. After developing treatment plan and presenting them to clients and/or legal guardians, counselors help clients gain the skills and learn the behaviors needed to put them on the path to mental wellness.
