Apricity Wellness Counseling is centered in 3rd generation CBT- constructivism and pastoral counseling which explores and addresses all aspects of the human's condition.
Apricity Wellness Counseling practices pastoral counseling as defined and researched by Dr. Ralph Piedmont explaining how the numinous is continuously evaluated and explored during the counseling experience.
The spiritual understanding of each client is applied.
Wellness is the aspect of seeking health or healthier levels in all areas of life.
Apricity Wellness Counseling appreciates each person as a unique soul who is equipped with diverse talents, interests, skills, and gifts.
Therefore every individual who chooses therapy will experience counseling sessions co-designed for his/her/zir needs, abilities, and comfort.
We will work together to identify goals, design plans to reach the goals, and walk through the steps to achieve the agreed upon wellness.
As a trained licensed counselor my integrative theoretical perspective begins with constructivism.
Every human being and animal experiences anxiety.
It is part of our survival system.
It is a natural alert that something isn't right or needs our immediate attention.
However, according to the National Institutes of Health there are over 40 million adults who suffer or are learning how to manage an anxiety disorder.
About 25% of adolescents aged 13-18 have an anxiety disorder.
Anxiety can become overwhelming and negatively affect a person's daily life.
Anxiety can involve excessive worry, racing thoughts, restlessness, panic attacks, disrupted sleep, depression, irritability, headaches, as well as physical symptoms.
Understanding and adjusting to life after a loss can be difficult.
A loss can generate feelings, emotions, behaviors, and thoughts never experienced before, which can lead to questions about your sense of self or being.
A loss can be anything that you once had or knew and no longer have in the same way.
This includes a relationship, a person, a job, a four-legged friend, a pet, a home, a death, heirlooms, a neighborhood, and the list goes on.
At times, there are people in our life that may not understand the difficulties and challenges one may face after experiencing a loss.
Trauma involves a range of adverse experiences.
The need for therapy after enduring a trauma or several traumatic events varies greatly between people.
Not everyone who experiences a trauma will require therapy.
Two people can go through the same traumatic experience yet each may respond differently to the event.
There is a neurobiological response to trauma, this results in some people benefiting from professional counseling to return the mind & body to a desired functional level.
A person's response to a traumatic event cannot be predicted.
