Is counseling about advice giving?
Although you might recall useful advice you've heard from friends or family members, giving advice (i.e., telling you what to do) is not the function of a professional counselor. Your counselor can help you process your thoughts and feelings, understand any challenges or concerns, brainstorm ideas and evaluate options, give an alternate perspective or way of thinking, but ultimately you are responsible for any decisions you make.
Is counseling only for people with serious emotional problems?
Counselors often work with individuals who are struggling with difficult life circumstances and concerns, as well as those with severe mental illness. Everyone has difficulties at some point in their lives, and sometimes engaging in counseling is a good way to attain support to overcome challenges.
Is going to counseling a sign of weakness?
Far from being a sign of weakness, attending counseling is a sign of willingness to understand and surmount any challenges present in your life. It takes courage to explore sensitive feelings and difficult experiences. The alternative -- doing nothing about these challenges -- is a far less courageous act.
Who has access to my information?
Confidentiality is of the utmost concern for counselors, which is reflected very clearly in the Code of Ethics. Although there are a few exceptions to confidentiality (detailed in the Informed Consent), the only individuals who will have direct access to client files, including information discussed in session, is the counselor with whom you are working.
Note About Insurance:
Insurance companies require a diagnosis for billing purposes. This diagnosis becomes a part of your medical record. Third party entities, like insurance companies (life, disability, and health) at times request medical records when determining coverage and to approve services rendered. Please understand the insurance companies, as a covered entity, have the right to access your medical records. Should you wish to have additional confidentiality and your privacy protected, self-payment for therapy services is available.
