Counseling can simply be sharing your thoughts and feelings in confidence with a trained
counselor who is objective and a good listener. This is often helpful when you have
decisions to make. Sometimes counseling may help you to change your behavior in order
to deal more effectively with a problem. You may become aware of strengths and resources
you can use to your benefit.. At other times, counseling may help by giving you certain
types of information, or by teaching you new skills. Counseling may help you see yourself
and others in a different light. This is not to say that counseling is always easy.

can make changes that will lead to a more satisfying life.
