Tri-County Counseling's mission is to improve our communities by teaching our clients those skills necessary to lead a healthier, happier, and more productive life.
Couples Counseling - Most of us can readily identify what it is that our partner should do to make us feel more secure in our relationship. It is our responsibility to identify these needs, take actions to meet them and ask our partner's support.
Individual Counseling - All of us experience and overcome emotional stress at various times throughout our lifespan. That's part of the human drama. However, repeated stress or trauma can create situations that require professional intervention. We will help you identify the root causes of your emotional imbalances.
Substance Abuse Counseling (Non-disease model) - We sincerely believe that people can overcome their dependence to any substance and that most of us cannot accomplish this by ourselves. If we could, we wouldn't have gotten into unhealthy situations in the first place.
We use a different approach than most treatment providers. We do not believe that addiction is a disease and do not use a 12 step approach. Addiction is a mal-adaptive response to an underlying condition. We have a higher success rate than the most traditional addiction treatment approaches.
Some of us lack the skills necessary to gain or regain control over our lives and will continue our self-destructive ways until taught otherwise. Our experienced counselors begin by analyzing the origins of your negative attitudes and behaviors and why they continue. We then help you identify what you need to change and assist you through the change process. Ultimately, you will live a happier, healthier life without the use of mind and mood-altering substances.
We also provide awareness of other substances that create a mind-body imbalance such as caffeine, nicotine, sugar and prescription medications as well as certain foods that affect our emotional and physical stability. We offer individual, family, couple, group treatment for substance abuse problems. Substance abuse treatment is based around a behavior modification process. To be effective, treatment must address the individual's drug use and any associated medical, psychological, social, vocational, and legal problems.
Crisis Counseling - Today our lives are filled with many demands. When things seem overwhelming a crisis occurs that can spin our lives out of control. If a crisis is not resolved in a healthy manner, the experience can lead to more lasting psychological, social and medical problems.
Life Skills Counseling - We offer Life Skills counseling to hep assist patients with basic life goals. We are goal oriented and have research proven techniques to help better your life.
