Counseling and Psychotherapy are terms that are often used synonymously, and refer to the act of talking about life's struggles with an unbiased, nonjudgmental person.

For some, they serve the same purpose, and don't require a distinction. However, some clinicians will make a general distinction between the two as follows:

• psychotherapy is more long-term work that strives to delve deeper into the client's past patterns in order to help gain clarity about current events
• counseling puts more focus on specific issues (e.g. trauma, grief) and symptom management

I am happy to provide both of these services, and believe that collaborating with you is the only way to determine which type, frequency, and length of treatment will best suit your needs.
