COUNSELING & THERAPY SERVICES

 
 

Therapy and counseling is the process of meeting with a therapist to resolve problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings, and other personal issues, and even somatic responses (sensations in the body).

At ABS we understand that beginning therapy is a big step toward being the healthiest version of yourself and living the best life possible. 

The goal for our clients is to provide them with the tools to change self-destructive behaviors and habits, resolve painful feelings, improve relationships, and enhance their overall mental health and well-being.

All therapeutic relationships are confidential and focuses on the content of the conversation, and  the process to obtain a positive outcome. The method of how you share your feelings and experiences is just as important as the specific issues or concerns you share in therapy.
