Counseling

7232 Justin Way, Mentor, OH 44060

Ms. Theresa Gill works as a counseling specialist in Mentor, OH.

"Had 3 sessions with her. No special expertise whatsoever from her. She's a clock-watcher. On last session she was 5+ minutes late and ended the session 5 minutes early. I had asked her on 2 previous sessions to investigate the process for me obtaining a doctor's note for a companion pet. She promised to do this. But on third session she did not even bring up this. It was the only thing she had to do but did not do it. The first introductory session was ok, and her appearance was good. In the final 2 sessions it appeared that she had just awoken with unwashed hair. She wanted to end the sessions quickly and gave no evidence that she listened to a word I said."

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a type of professional guidance for handling problems in life. There are many types of counselors, and they serve an incredibly wide variety of people with all kinds of different needs. There are general counselors, marriage and family counselors, school and student counselors, career and vocational counselors, religious counselors, and gerontological counselors specifically for the elderly.

In all cases, counseling works when the client and the counselor talk to each other and develop a trusting relationship. The counselor listens respectfully to the client's problems. Then the two together work on identifying goals, increasing coping skills to overcome any troubles, and improving useful skills such as communication. The goals of counseling will be different for each person, but generally they include an increased sense of well being, decreased distress and anxiety, resolved crisis, and increased ability and function in daily life.
