Our Counseling Services
We offer professional, evidence-based counseling focused on the findings of neuroscience that inform treatment. Counseling can be an effective, efficient way for individuals to overcome hardship, increase confidence and improve quality of life. Through counseling, health care providers can benefit from various interventions and strategies to reduce symptoms, improve functioning and develop coping skills.
- Individual Counseling
-
Individual counseling may be beneficial for people who are having emotional, behavioral or psychological concerns that are causing problems in life. Often, people seek counseling to help with issues including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, substance abuse, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, social anxiety, past or recent trauma, dissatisfaction, assertiveness, identity concerns, low motivation, feeling stuck or lost, problems coping, grief and loss issues, transitions and interpersonal problems.
- Marital or Couples Counseling
-
Counseling can effectively help couples identify their strengths, learn new strategies to communicate and overcome barriers or struggles. Counseling can help with relationship issues, including (but not limited to) improving communication, deepening intimacy, reducing stress and destructive behaviors, parenting concerns, finding balance, conflict management, increasing fun and passion and restoring trust.
- Family Counseling
-
Family therapy is a resource to address family pain and heal a family’s wounds. Some families come to counseling to prevent future problems, and some come to solve current problems or heal from past hurts.
Some common issues that families seek counseling for include parenting difficulties, single-parent concerns, discipline problems, dealing with divorce, parent-child relationship difficulties, generational conflicts, how to manage or navigate children’s use of technology, how to set appropriate boundaries and expectations, different cultural values among generations and communication difficulties.
- Group Therapy
-
Group therapy can be a great choice for addressing concerns and making positive changes. The benefits of working in a group include gaining new perspectives, exposure to diverse backgrounds and specialties, enhancing empathy and connection, support and guidance, increase in hope, interpersonal learning and having a safe place to be open and express yourself.
At The Center for Physician Wellbeing, we can design and tailor a group to your needs and goals. We would be happy to discuss the possibility of running groups to address specific topics. Please call our office at 407-303-9674.
Our Additional Services
Coaching
Coaching assesses a physician’s daily practice through Intentional Rounding, which involves a therapist observing the physician in-vivo to note areas of strength and weakness relating to communication, workflow and professional wellbeing. The physician and therapist will discuss recommendations for improvement and develop strategies to implement positive change. The physician will receive support from the therapist during the trial/error process of implementing change via in-person or virtual meetings. To schedule a counseling or coaching appointment, call our office at 407-303-9674.

Our workshops are specifically developed with physicians and advanced practice providers in mind and provide opportunities to learn, practice new skills, de-stress, connect and have fun. Workshops are also available upon request for specific teams or departments and can be facilitated in person or virtually. Topics may include self-compassion, work-life balance, grief and loss, healthy ways to handle anger, women in medicine, addiction, time management, interpersonal skills and more.
