Why people get counseling help
We all experience challenges in life’s normal stages: marriage, career choices, parenting, and aging. Also, unexpected events such as divorce, illness, unemployment, untimely death, inability to have children, or a traumatic event may occur. There are times when families can feel overwhelmed. It is during these times that professional counseling can be helpful. We offer professional counseling based on Christian principals.

How do you know if counseling could benefit you or your family? John 10:10 (KJV) provides a guideline for when to seek help: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. If there are issues in your life, which regularly prevent you from enjoying life, you may need to seek help.

Why is it so difficult for many to seek assistance? First, it can be difficult to admit there is a need. People may deny their problems or believe themselves failures. Yet, almost all of us at some time in life suffer feelings of failure or embarrassment. While we may feel inadequate as a parent or a spouse, it is difficult to admit our shortcomings or seek help. Second, often people do not know where to turn for help or whom to trust with serious personal matters. Third, a financial burden is sometimes a deterrent to those who want help. (top)

Many times those who are struggling do not want their family, neighbors, co-workers, or friends to know their problems. One of your most important rights in the counseling room involves confidentiality. We take that right very seriously. All contacts made to the Granberry Counseling Centers are held in strictest confidence. In addition, we have made every attempt to establish our satellite offices in private locations. (top)
