INDIVIDUAL & FAMILY COUNSELING

The CRCC approach to individual and family therapy involves components of Multi-Systematic Treatment (MST) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Therapy (CBT) is offered within a systems framework (MST).  Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a relatively short-term focused psychotherapy for a wide range of psychological problems, including; depression, anxiety, anger, marital conflict, loneliness, panic, fears, eating disorders, substance abuse, alcohol abuse/dependence, and personality problems.  The focus of therapy is on how one is thinking, behaving, and communicating today; rather than on unconscious or repressed experiences.

Specific strategies are used to further help the client alter their current pattern of thinking, feeling and behaving; so that, effective self-help skills are learned to address the difficulties the client is experiencing.  Cognitive-behavioral therapy is an action-oriented, practical, and rational approach that helps the client gain independence and effectiveness in dealing with real-life issues.

Family-Directed Structural Therapy (FDST) is an approach to family therapy built on traditional concepts of Structural Family Therapy, the Strengths Model, and Group Work Theory.  FDST is a goal-oriented process that empowers the family through identification of strengths and the provision of concrete skills and is designed to be utilized by the family both inside and outside the clinical setting.  The FDST approach facilitates the attainment of the goals of accentuating family strengths and decreasing family conflict in a time-limited manner.
