GOH Triage Sessions

Short-term, high-focus support when life feels urgent, and you need a clear plan fast.


Come in overwhelmed. Leave grounded, clear, and equipped with next steps.


What It Is?

GOH Triage Sessions are brief, structured sessions designed to help you stabilize, get clarity, and build an action plan without committing to long-term therapy right away. These sessions are practical, goal-driven, and rooted in evidence-based approaches (DBT, ACT, mindfulness, trauma-informed care).

Who It’s For?

This is for you if you’re…

Ideal for:

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally flooded and need support this week

Navigating a breakup, family conflict, or major life transition

Stuck in overthinking/decision fatigue and need clarity + direction

Needing coping tools fast (emotion regulation, grounding, boundaries, communication)

Feeling “high-functioning but barely holding it together”

Wanting a short-term boost between seasons of therapy

What You’ll Leave With

In 1–3 sessions, you can expect:

A clear understanding of what’s driving the stress (your “triage map”)

A personalized stabilization plan (nervous system + emotional regulation tools)

Practical DBT/ACT skills you can use immediately

A 7–14 day action plan with next steps

Boundary and communication scripts (if relevant)


Resources, referrals, or a treatment roadmap (if ongoing therapy is needed)


More clarity, calm, and confidence in how to move forward

Psychotherapy at Guidance of Hope

Individual Psychotherapy

 

Individual psychotherapy involves one-on-one sessions between a therapist and a client, aimed at addressing personal challenges, emotional issues, and mental health concerns. Through confidential and supportive dialogue, the therapist helps the client explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, gain insight into underlying issues, develop coping strategies, and work toward personal growth and healing. Individual therapy sessions provide a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to express themselves, set goals, and navigate life's challenges with professional guidance and support. 

 

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy is a specialized form of counseling designed to help individuals heal from past traumatic experiences and reduce the impact of trauma on their lives. Through a variety of evidence-based techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance Therapy (ACT), and somatic experiencing, trauma therapists assist clients in processing difficult memories, managing distressing symptoms, and rebuilding a sense of safety and empowerment. The goal of trauma therapy is to promote healing, resilience, and a greater sense of well-being, allowing individuals to move forward with their lives and thrive despite past adversity.

DBT Individual Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) individual therapy is a specialized form of treatment focused on helping individuals develop skills to manage intense emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and cope effectively with distressing situations. In DBT individual therapy sessions, clients work closely with a therapist to identify specific goals, learn practical strategies for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and address problematic behaviors using a dialectical approach that balances acceptance and change. Through a combination of psycho education, skill-building exercises, and ongoing support, DBT individual therapy aims to empower clients to lead more balanced and fulfilling lives.

Couples Therapy

Couples therapy, also known as marriage or relationship counseling, is a form of psychotherapy designed to help partners improve their relationship, resolve conflicts, and strengthen their bond. In couples therapy sessions, I facilitate open and honest communication between partners, explore patterns of interaction, identify underlying issues, and teach effective communication and problem-solving skills. Through collaborative discussions and structured exercises, couples learn to understand each other's perspectives, address areas of disagreement, and build trust and intimacy. The goal of couples therapy is to foster healthier and more fulfilling relationships, enabling partners to navigate challenges and thrive together.

Family Therapy

 

Family therapy, also known as family counseling, is a therapeutic approach that focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening relationships within a family unit.


In family therapy sessions, a trained therapist works with all members of the family together to explore dynamics, identify patterns of interaction, and address issues affecting the family as a whole. Through open dialogue, empathy-building exercises, and problem-solving techniques, family members learn to understand each other's perspectives, express emotions constructively, and develop healthier ways of relating to one another. The goal of family therapy is to promote understanding, cohesion, and mutual support, fostering a more harmonious and resilient family environment.

Individual Weekly Clinical Supervision to LGPC

Individual weekly clinical supervision involves one-on-one meetings between a supervisor and myself. These sessions provide an opportunity for the supervisor to discuss cases, seek guidance on therapeutic techniques, and receive feedback on clinical skills and professional development.


Supervision may include reviewing client progress, exploring ethical dilemmas, and addressing personal and professional challenges. The supervisor offers support, mentorship, and constructive feedback to help the supervise enhance their clinical competence, deepen their understanding of therapeutic concepts, and maintain ethical standards. The goal of individual weekly clinical supervision is to promote professional growth, ensure quality client care, and uphold ethical standards within the field of mental health.
