What is counseling?

What can I expect during a counseling session?

During a counseling session, you can expect a safe, nonjudgmental, and confidential space to talk about your concerns. Your DelSandz TeleWellness LLC counselor begins by asking questions to better understand your situation. This might include discussing your current issues, personal history, and any previous experiences with therapy.

Next, they help you set goals and develop a plan to address your concerns. This may involve various therapeutic techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, or talk therapy. You might also receive assignments or exercises to practice outside of sessions.

Is counseling an ongoing process?

Some people benefit from a few sessions to address a specific issue, while others may need longer-term therapy to work through more complex or deep-seated problems. The frequency and duration of counseling sessions are typically discussed and agreed upon between you and your counselor. 

Regular sessions can help maintain progress and provide continuous support, but DelSandz TeleWellness LLC tailors the overall length of counseling to your unique circumstances and needs.
