Counseling and Social Emotional Services

Social emotional skills and awareness are central in the development of successful lives.

Being able to understand, anticipate and navigate our own emotions and those of others is critical. It opens the doors to community and acceptance and sets the stage for learning, purpose and fulfillment.

At Frankenberger Associates, social-emotional learning is addressed through individual counseling which allows a person to explore how their current life situation impacts their social functioning, in a safe and trusting environment.

The goal of individual therapy varies from person to person, as each individual presents with a unique life situation. Goals may include: regulating emotions, cognitive flexibility, recognizing triggers, social communication and learning specific coping skills to foster newfound growth and opportunities.

PARENT COACHING

Parent Coaching allows family members and loved ones to enhance their understanding of social-emotional wellness, while simultaneously developing new parenting techniques. These include setting and enforcing boundaries, understanding emotions and learning alternative communication skills to help your loved one on their path to fulfillment.

Prior to receiving individual therapy, a clinical evaluation and assessment will be conducted.

A Clinical Evaluation provides an in-depth analysis of the individual. The assessment includes: the onset of the presenting problem, developmental factors, family history, risk and protective factors, motivation for change, etc. The clinical evaluation is vital, as it ensures the individual receives the appropriate level of care, and it also serves as a guideline for the treatment process.
