There are many types of counseling, and the “type” that we use is “Christian Counseling”. I know that you’ve heard this term before, but the way it’s done at Dallas Christian Counseling is quite different. Here’s a basic plan that we use:
Your first 4 sessions
INTAKE
When you call our office 3 things will happen.
- We will e-mail you the “intake forms”. Fill out the forms and bring them with you to your first session (you must bring these forms with you)
- We will send you the Square Bill for your Temperament Profile (s) that must be paid before your Discovery session.
- We will set up your first appointment with your therapist
DISCOVERY
During this one hour session you will meet with your therapist and tell him/her what is on your heart. You will be able to talk to your therapist privately and tell them what brought you to The Penewit Center. Your therapist will ask some easy questions to help them to understand you and what your needs are.
INTERPRETATION
This is the session that you’ve been waiting for. During this session we will “interpret” your Temperament Profile to you. You will learn how God “wove” you before you were born. This will begin to answer the questions that you came with.
LEARNING YOUR PERSONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
During this (and future sessions) your therapist will take you through your “personal recommendations” that are contained in the last pages of your Profile. During these sessions you will actually learn where your temperament needs are not being met, and why you may be making the decisions that you are.
These sessions will teach you how to meet your “temperament needs” in different ways than you may be making now. The results will give you choices that you can make that lead to happiness instead of depression and sadness
