Counseling

Mr. Jared Twitchell specializes in counseling and practices in Draper, UT.

"Jared was rude and uninviting during my visit. He interrupted me multiple times and was so insensitive that I stood up and walked out fifteen minutes into the session. I would not recommend this provider to anyone who needs someone to be sensitive about their issues."

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a type of professional guidance for handling problems in life. There are many types of counselors, and they serve an incredibly wide variety of people with all kinds of different needs. There are general counselors, marriage and family counselors, school and student counselors, career and vocational counselors, religious counselors, and gerontological counselors specifically for the elderly.

In all cases, counseling works when the client and the counselor talk to each other and develop a trusting relationship. The counselor listens respectfully to the client's problems. Then the two together work on identifying goals, increasing coping skills to overcome any troubles, and improving useful skills such as communication. The goals of counseling will be different for each person, but generally they include an increased sense of well being, decreased distress and anxiety, resolved crisis, and increased ability and function in daily life.
