Mental Health Counseling
Mental health counselors can offer advice, support, and a safe space to talk about the problems a person is struggling with. For example, they can help someone:
-
Understand their feelings
-
Identify issues that affect their mental health
-
Discover ways to overcome them
-
Learn new skills and coping strategies
-
Set goals for personal growth
-
Learn more about mental health conditions
Counseling typically focuses on addressing the main symptoms or problems a person or group finds distressing. By doing this, counselors can help people overcome challenges, obstacles, or events that have affected their mental well-being. Mental health counselors can teach a person healthy coping strategies or self-help techniques, or they can simply give people a space to work out solutions for themselves.
If appropriate, a counselor may also refer their client to other services that may help, such as a doctor, dietitian, or support group. It is not necessary to experience severe symptoms to see a counselor. Many people attend counseling because they feel a benefit from talking about their concerns with a compassionate and nonjudgmental professional.
