 Are these your ideas of counseling, or maybe this, or this? Counseling looks different for each person we see. We do have Kleenex, and sometimes we do talk about feelings, but you may just need to have a question answered or someone to help you come up with some ideas or options. Here is one way your first session might begin. Hi Levi. Hi Josh. Hi. So when I meet with clients, I usually ask them, how would you like to get started, or what would you like to talk about today? Well honestly Josh, lately I've been really stressed out. I'm new to Highline, and I don't know where to start. I don't know what job I work. Being in a new place is scary. I need help finding my way. I feel tired all the time. I can't juggle all the time. I'm worried about my friends. I can use some help dealing with my stress. You don't have to have mental health issues or be broken to speak with a counselor at Highline. You can talk with someone who will listen, keep your issues private, and help you explore options you may not have thought of yourself. You are not alone, and we are here to help you reach your goals. Why not come and talk to us?
