Therapy, Counseling, and Coaching in Winston-Salem, NC—Mental Health Services in Forsyth County

When you were a kid, adults would ask you, “What are you going to do when you are all grown up?” Think back to how you’d respond. Maybe you thought about your future career—as a firefighter, a veterinarian, a teacher. Maybe you thought about what kind of a family you wanted—lots of kids or no kids. Maybe you imagined yourself travelling the world and exploring places you have never been. Children often have a strong sense of who they are and what they want. However, as we grow older, these dreams can evolve—and life obstacles can stand in our way.

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”
—George Bernard Shaw

Creating a happy, healthy life is more easily said than done. Childhood dreams take work to implement. No one is exempt from hardship, pain, and setback. Within the challenges, people often still create a meaningful, fulfilling life. Whether the challenge is personal, professional, and/or relational, difficulty does not have to define people. And no one has to face the ups and downs of life alone. Many people are reaching out for help and they are working with a mental health professional.

Thriveworks Winston-Salem, NC in Forsyth County has counselors, coaches, therapists, and psychologists who love helping people create the life they want. Whether they are working with a client to manage symptoms of a diagnosis or to achieve their next career move, our staff cares about every individual who walks through their doors. To schedule an appointment of your own, just give our office a call. We look forward to meeting you.

How Can Mental Health Services Help Me?

People face a wide variety of challenges within their lives that are unique to their particular situation, but one thing that remains the same is that everybody needs a safe place. Life can get busy and crazy and overwhelming in an instant, and taking a step back to reflect and breathe feels nearly impossible. However, many people find they are able to do just that with the help of mental health services. The relationship they establish with their therapist, counselor, or coach often becomes a safe, judgment-free relationship where people can think and process and plan and dream. While reflecting within a safe space, many people find that confusion is clarified, problems are put into perspective, and courage replaces fear.

If you have never worked with a therapist, life coach, or counselor before, you may wonder what it’s like. Thriveworks Winston-Salem gives each client personalized care, but in general, counseling may allow people to think about the challenges and opportunities, strengths and weaknesses they possess. Sometimes, clients have a very specific reason for beginning therapy. Other times, they just know they need help in some why but are not sure why or how. Either way is fine and normal. Our staff works with clients who have a wide range of reasons for seeking therapy. And each staff member at Thriveworks Winston-Salem has unique training and experience in handling particular mental health problems. Some areas of their expertise include:

• Psychiatric testing
• Marriage tensions
• Depression
• Childhood abuse
• Anxiety
• Insomnia
• Domestic violence

• Panic disorder
• ADHD
• Infidelity
• Addiction
• Cannabis abuse
• Alcoholism

Do you recognize anything on this list within your own life? You may or you may not. Some struggles can be labeled but other cannot. The therapists, counselors, and coaches at Thriveworks are committed to helping their clients regardless of the struggles they face.
