Research suggests that nicotine may be as addictive as heroin, cocaine, or alcohol. Quitting smoking is hard and may require several attempts. Have you tried to stop smoking only to find yourself starting again? Have you experienced any withdrawal symptoms, stress or weight gain. Nicotine withdrawal symptoms may include: feeling irritable, angry, or anxious having trouble thinking, craving tobacco products and feeling hungrier than usual. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body, causing many diseases and affects the health of smokers in general. Quitting smoking has immediate as well as long-term benefits for you and your loved ones.

Conflict Resolution

Do you need help learning how to redirect conflict without destructive emotional feelings getting in the way? Do you incorporate positive communication as the primary tool for problem solving and resolution? Do you unite with others and use learned skills when facing difficult situations to come to an agreement? Are self-motivated and encouraged to work together rather than combat each other in order to overcome difficult issues that may, if left unaddressed, lead to anxiety, depression, or contempt? If not, you may need assistance with conflict resolution.

Counseling: Self-referred, group and or individual counseling | Building 158 | 254-501-3097, 

LGBTQ

Although a person’s sexual or romantic orientation or gender identity may not be a source of distress, people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, asexual, or any other orientation or gender identity may find that the social stigma of living as a minority is a source of stress or anxiety. Despite the rapidly growing cultural acceptance of diverse sexual and romantic orientations and gender identifications, oppression, discrimination, and marginalization of LGBTQ people persist. Coping with discrimination and oppression, coming out to one’s family, and sorting out an “authentic” sense of self in the face of social expectations and pressures can lead to higher levels of depression, anxiety, substance use, and other mental health concerns for LGBTQ people. Having someone to talk to and listen to your concerns can help in a time of need.

Counseling: Self-referred, group and or individual counseling | Building 158 | 254-501-3097

 Learning Difficulties

Do you have a learning difficulty? A learning difficulty may also be referred to as a learning disability which can be described as the brain's ability to process information in a manner that differs from the norm. Individuals who have a learning difficulty may not learn in the same way or as quickly as their peers, and they might find certain aspects of learning, such as the development of basic skills, to be challenging. Because learning difficulties cannot be cured, their effects may impact an individual's performance throughout life: academically, in the workplace, in relationships, and in daily life. Counseling can be helpful when those with a learning difficulty feel shy, anxious, or otherwise find it challenging to express themselves to others. 

Counseling: Self-referred, group and or individual counseling | Building 158 | 254-501-3097

Transitioning

There will be many transitions in life that can feel overwhelming and the natural changes that occur in life relating to expectations, responsibilities and relationships can be stressful.  Transitions occur to us when we move from teenager to adult, if we are questioning our sexuality, change careers, have major changes in our life, find ourselves in a situation unfamiliar to us, to name a few situations.  Many transitions can be difficult and cause feelings of being overwhelmed, stressed, disorganized, depressed, like you don’t fit in, and more.  Counseling can assist with these feelings and provide tools to assist in successfully navigating changes in life that everyone goes through.

 Cyberbullying

Cell phones and the internet make it easy to meet or stay in touch with friends. But they also make it easier for people to bully, hurt or tease others. Sometimes a person does not know that his or her actions hurt others. Using email, text messages, blogs, videos, websites and cell phones, social media or gaming sites to embarrass or harass or bully a person is called cyberbullying or e-bullying. Cyberbullying hurts everyone, think before you send or post.  If you feel you have difficulties in proper engagement with others, or you feel you are the target of any type of bullying, counseling can assist in rectifying these situations as well as addressing the stress associated with bullying.

Counseling: Self-referred, group and or individual counseling | Building 158 | 254-501-3097
