Get Started

How Does it Work?

Step 1:

Schedule your Assessment

An initial assessment is essential to determine the needs of the client. Congruent Counseling Services utilizes a structured interview to assess the needs of the client and how we may best serve them. While the initial assessment sets the direction for initial counseling, assessment is an ongoing part of counseling. It is essential to be open and honest during your assessment. If you are concerned about confidentiality, talk with your assessor. As a therapist and client learn more about each other, a reassessment or change in direction may be important.

*Our phones are often busy. We can’t call you back if you don’t leave us a message. Clearly, our phones are busy because we are able to help so many people. We can help you too.

Step 2:

Go to your appointment and make a plan

We can’t help if you don’t come. Please call us well in advance if you cannot make your appointment. Just like going to the gym, you can’t make change if you don’t show up. Congruent offers a safe, confidential environment. We can move at the pace you set. Imagine your life happier and more directed where you want it to go. We can help get you there, but you have to show up.

See you soon!
