FAMILY COUNSELING

Individual, group, pastoral, or clinical counseling

Counseling or Therapy in most cases is the same depending on one’s ideology and or philosophy. At ACI we look at each client based on where their setting in life and developmental stage. We also take in consideration a client’s culture and or spiritual belief in order to help them. Our goal is to identify patterns of faulty thinking and or unacceptable behaviors that negatively affect our clients and their families. By identifying these patters we find these families interact in a more healthy way. We realize every potential client may not be a good fit, so we will do our best to connect them with an organization or resource that may meet their needs.

Parents of Adolescents / Teens

Relationship Coaching – We all do better when we have positive relationships in our life and this applies with every human developmental stage we experience. The teenage years can be challenging, for the parents as well as the teens. This series helps parents and their teens to communicate more effectively, in order to build closer relationships.

These sessions consist of a group that shares a specific type of concern that focuses on educating clients about their issues and ways of coping. Many psycho-educational groups consist of members that all share the same issues.

“To me the most important part of ministering to one who is grieving is to be present, sometimes quietly, sometimes with a shoulder or open arms; but most importantly with a heart of compassion.”  Larry Ginn, ACI
