Services

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Our therapists will help clients to identify and focus on specific goals while at the same time understanding the thoughts and feelings that create negative self-esteem. Individual Therapy will support the client in further developing their skills to build an emotionally healthier life.

 

COUPLES THERAPY

thumb2Couples therapy helps couples learn to understand and work through conflicts to strengthen their relationships.  Our clinicians help couples develop the skills to improve their communication with one another, negotiate differences, problem solve and argue in a more effective way.  Anger, infidelity, sex, finances, communication problems can contribute to distress in intimate relationships.  Couples counseling can reconcile points of disagreement, and foster a more satisfying relationship.

 

FAMILY THERAPY

thumb3A family’s pattern of interaction may negatively impact an individual, child, or adolescent and therefore may need to be part of the therapy.  Verdugo Counseling Center clinicians recognize that the treatment plan is not just about the person, but also the set of relationships in which the individual is involved.  Therefore, family therapy can be quite effective in helping the client in the context of their family.
