Stress Counseling
Your world is full of stress. There are good stressors such as pleasurable activities, pleasant surprises, celebrations, and successes in life. There are also bad stressors such as unrelenting demands at work and home, disappointment and rejection in relationships, loss and grief, physical pain, not enough money to the pay bills, and the overall feeling that everything around you has more control over your life than you do. You can get to the end of your rope and be out of rope!! What do you do? Tie a knot in the end of your rope and hang on. There is hope and help at Springfield MFI. Call today and set up an appointment with one of our caring, professionally trained counselors who can help you get back on top of your world. The number is 417-882-6767.
Networking
To provide you with the best possible care, it is standard procedure to discuss how best to meet the needs of clients in supervision or in consultation with other members of our staff. We also usually send a note to professional persons who make referrals to us, as a courtesy, to thank them.
Working Together
Counseling is most successful when the client and therapist develop a good working relationship. Your questions and concerns will be taken seriously. Information you share with your counselor will be kept confidential. It will not be disclosed to anyone without your written permission. If you have questions about something in the counseling process, please bring it up with your therapist.
"It's your life, your choice, make it a great one!"
