Services offered
Individual
In individual counseling you can expect a confidential, non-judgemental, one-on-one session in a supportive environment with a mental health professional. Individual counseling can help address a variety of concerns including; anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, a life transition or help with motivation and establishing and reaching goals.
Couples
All relationships take work. At La Grange Counseling Center we recognize that sometimes relationships need help from an outside professional. In couples counseling you can expect a neutral environment with a licensed professional where you and your partner can work on improving your relationship by learning skills like communication and conflict resolution. Every relationship is different. Whether your goal is to enhance intimacy, repair years of conflict or continue to grow together; couples therapy can provide the skills needed to move forward.
Family
Family therapy is focused on the family system as a whole instead of the individual. At La Grange Counseling Center we believe that the actions and emotions of individuals in the family are interconnected. A change in the family dynamic effects everyone. In family counseling you can expect to work together to improve communication, resolve conflicts and improve relationships in a safe, neutral environment.
Parallel Therapy
Parallel therapy is a unique opportunity for two people who are in a close relationship to both receive individual therapy from different therapists. In parallel therapy, you sign a consent for these therapists to communicate with one another in order to coordinate consistent and complementary services to both individuals. In some cases, occasional sessions are held for the individuals to practice skills learned with one another. Parallel therapy is often used in situations like: two family members that are working to rebuild a relationship (parent/child, siblings etc.), a couple that would like to improve their relationship but also need to do some individual work or co-parents that no longer live together but want to coordinate parenting. Confidentiality is a top priority at La Grange Counseling Center. Therapists will only share necessary information for coordinating services. You are still able to keep sensitive material between you and your therapist.
Groups
In group therapy you can expect sessions to be led by one or two therapists. These group sessions often include a small group of individuals with common challenges. In a group setting you are an active participant in learning skills from professionals as well as receiving social support and validation from others in the group. Types of groups vary and are offered at different times throughout the year. Contact us for more information about upcoming groups or to make a request for a specific group to be offered.
