Individual Services

There are seasons when individual counseling may help with all of life’s . . . stuff. Today, we are fortunate our culture esteems personal growth and holistic health. Baby Boomers and prior generations were not afforded accessible mental health care. Yipee! You made it! Permission to heal.

Here are some considerations before you schedule the first appointment (Intake). 

  1. Are you looking for ongoing support? 
  2. Are you looking for immediate support through a present crisis or trauma? (For example, Do you prefer an emergency support model?)
  3. Do you prefer a problem-focused or holistic method? For problem-focused services, are there topics/issues that are off-limits?
  4. Have you reviewed Joyful Journeys Counseling service rates?
  5. Are you ready to start counseling? Are you simply researching options?

The answers to these questions can help inform your Intake session for optimum outcome.  

Ongoing Support

This structure includes twice-weekly, weekly, or bi-weekly sessions. Twice-weekly sessions are helpful for those in high-stress transitional phases. An example may be a couple who would like to carefully plan how to navigate divorce for a family of four.

Weekly sessions are typical schedules for those committed to growth in a specific area. Weekly support provides maximized space to focus on personal, relational, and career goals. Ongoing support may be beneficial for the following needs:

  • career transition
  • relationship support
  • childhood trauma
  • spiritual growth
  • chronic stress
  • stress from job, family, finances

Bi-weekly and Monthly Support

When individuals or families are in a solid place, it works well to schedule once a month or once a quarter. It might be helpful to consider the later setup akin to an oil change for your car. This client typically has few experiences of emotional dysregulation and wants to move their personal life from good to great. Suited well for individuals, couples, or families:

  • who have accomplished set goals through ongoing weekly support
  • with restrictive schedules
  • whose budget does not accommodate weekly counseling
  • processing childhood issues (as an adult)
