Individual and Couples Counseling
Clients at Daemion Counseling Center have the opportunity to talk confidentially with one of our highly-trained, licensed therapists about challenges they are experiencing. Daemion’s therapists provide a welcoming, compassionate and nonjudgmental environment that creates a positive counseling experience from which a strong therapeutic alliance can form.
We see clients struggling with managing symptoms associated with mood disorders, such as unipolar and bipolar depression, a variety of anxiety and personality disorders, and adjustment disorders arising from transitions that occur across the lifespan, as well as those who are experiencing grief and bereavement that accompany many types of loss.
We also see individuals who desire to improve their quality of life and personal wellbeing through exploring relationships, self-esteem, communication skills, health, and spirituality, and the many other dimensions that create a value-driven, meaningful life.
Our therapists use a variety of counseling theories and techniques to explore new and healthier ways of thinking, behaving, and relating to and with others that help individuals meet their unique goals of therapy.
Drug and Alcohol Evaluation
Daemion offers a two-session drug and alcohol evaluation service to clients using validated instruments designed to measure substance and/or alcohol use and the risk of abuse. Clients first meet with the therapist for an intake and evaluation session.
At the second session, clients receive feedback on their evaluation, are given appropriate educational information, and, based on the recommendation of the therapist, determine best next steps that meet the individual’s goals.
This program meet the requirements of many court-, school-, law-enforcement-, and employer-initiated requests for professional, independent evaluations.
Anger Management Program
Daemion offers a specialized, one-on-one, 11-session psycho-educational program that provides a structured format in which the client and therapist-educator explore together his/her personal experience with anger and how it manifests emotionally, cognitively and behaviorally.
Clients are evaluated at the first and last session using a validated, evidence-based anger management instrument that measures the experience, expression, and control of anger.
Throughout the program, the therapist works with the client both in-session and through between-session assignments, to better identify triggers, to recognize and replace distorted thinking patterns that contribute to anger and related emotions, and to explore and practice positive and productive alternative behaviors to replace current reactive behaviors.
A two-session evaluation program is also available. Clients first meet with the therapist-educator for an intake and evaluation session. At the second session, clients receive feedback on the results of the evaluation and, based on the recommendation of the therapist-educator, determine best next steps that meet the individual’s goals.
This program meet the requirements of many court-, school-, law-enforcement-, and employer-initiated requests for professional, independent evaluations.
Grief/Loss
Grief is our response to any loss. Grief may be comprised of feelings ranging from deep sadness to anger. While there are typical trends, there is not a right or wrong way to adapt to a significant loss. In Grief counseling, therapists help clients to accept the loss, to process feelings associated with the loss, and to develop new ways of looking at life without the subject of the loss.
