Striving to Offer Effective & Affordable Care for Those in Need. Shurmatz Counseling is invested in accessibility to training as a social justice issue.

We are a group psychotherapy practice with highly trained therapists who offer effective and affordable psychotherapy to children, couples, and adults. The costs of trainings, which advertise themselves as being transformative avenues of healing for our clients, should not be out of reach to any therapist. This value and belief have led to the creation of Therapists Helping And Nourishing Knowledge Sharing (THANKS). More information available at www.shurmatzcounseling.com/services/training

Achieving success often begins with mindfulness, a practice that encourages us to stay present and attentive to our thoughts and actions. By focusing on the present moment, we can break down our larger goals into smaller, more manageable successes. Celebrating these small victories can boost our confidence and keep us motivated on our journey to success.

The path to success is rarely possible without setbacks. It's important to practice self-compassion and forgive ourselves for any failures we encounter along the way. Understanding that mistakes are part of the learning process can help us grow and become more resilient. By embracing both our triumphs and our missteps, we create a balanced approach to achieving our goals, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and successful life.

On Friday, I like to focus on rest and self-care. It's a time to unwind from the week and recharge for the days ahead. I start by creating a calming environment at home, perhaps lighting some scented candles or playing soft music. Go for a walk. Feel the sunshine on your face.

Ultimately, Friday is about taking a step back, appreciating the present moment, and reconnecting with myself. It's dedicated time to practice taking one step towards a place of balance and wellbeing.

Understanding PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) is crucial for creating awareness and providing effective counseling for those affected. PTSD can occur after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, and it can affect anyone, regardless of age or background. Common symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts about the event.

Counseling for PTSD is an essential component of recovery, offering individuals a safe space to process their trauma, learn coping mechanisms, and gradually regain control over their lives. Therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and exposure therapy have shown to be particularly effective.

It's important to approach PTSD with empathy and patience, understanding that healing is a journey. Raising awareness about PTSD can help break the stigma and encourage those suffering to seek the help they need, ultimately promoting a supportive environment for recovery.

Men's mental health is a vital issue that often doesn't receive the attention it deserves. Many men feel the pressure to appear strong and self-reliant, which can lead to the harmful belief that seeking help is a sign of weakness.

It's okay to talk to someone about your feelings, whether it's a friend, family member, or mental health professional. Opening up about mental health can lead to healing and growth, fostering a healthier and happier life. Remember, you're not alone, and there are people who care and want to help.
