Counseling Services
Counseling can help you improve your communication and relationship skills. This can be especially beneficial if you're struggling with a specific relationship, such as a marriage or partnership. Your counselor can teach you how to express your needs and feelings more effectively, and help you learn how to respond to the needs and feelings of others.
Life can be challenging, and in recent times, the societal changes brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic have only added to the stress and anxiety that many of us are feeling. Whether you’re struggling with a specific issue or just feeling overwhelmed by the world around you, counseling can help.
Counseling services are designed to provide support and guidance to people of all ages. Whether you’re a teenager dealing with the pressures of school and social life, or an adult facing career or relationship challenges, counseling can help you navigate the difficulties of life.
One of the main benefits of counseling is that it provides a safe and confidential space to talk about your thoughts and feelings. Your counselor will listen to you without judgement and help you understand your emotions and behaviors. They will also help you identify patterns in your life that may be contributing to your feelings of anxiety and stress, and work with you to develop strategies for dealing with them.
Another benefit of counseling is that it can help you gain a new perspective on your problems. Sometimes, we can get so caught up in our own thoughts and feelings that it’s hard to see things clearly. A counselor can help you take a step back and look at your situation from a different angle, which can make it easier to find solutions and make positive changes.

Our Process
An intake where we gather information and complete the required paperwork Our counselor meets the family and the person served (if a minor) to complete an assessment that includes some history of the family. Then rapport building and basic goal setting follows.
Developing a transition plan is part of the initiation of services. The transition plan is a specific part of the treatment plan that allows the person receiving counseling to be and feel successful (transition plan = discharge planning and is required by most funding sources).
During each session the counselor listens, redirects, interacts, encourages, provides positive feedback, educates, engages, and assists the person to reach a deeper quality of life. Throughout S.E.E.K. Arizona you will discover that we are service and support from referral to discharge. We accept UHC, AHCCCS, Aetna, and BCBC commercial plans.

Acceptance and mindfulness therapy is a type of counseling that helps clients accept their present situations rather than focusing on past traumatic events or future worries. By learning how to accept the present moment as it is, clients are able to move forward on their journey toward healing.
Counseling for impulsivity can be a challenge. When people feel compelled to act on their impulses, they can get into trouble quickly. It's important for those who are seeking counseling for impulsivity to understand that it's a problem that can be addressed.
Counseling services with a focus on addressing impulsivity are done in a variety of ways, but the most common approach is to work with clients one-on-one. In this setting, counselors will help clients identify their triggers and develop strategies for managing those impulses. They'll also help clients recognize when they're feeling urges and give them tools they can use to take action instead of just acting out on their impulses without thinking things through first.
