Happy Sunday everyone! Dochney Counseling is excited to welcome a new therapist, Adam Specjal, LCSW. Adam’s clinical focus includes performance issues related to high achievers, social and generalized anxiety (chronic worry), mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, romantic relationships, and parenting challenges. He primarily utilizes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help clients reduce unnecessary suffering and find meaning and joy in their lives.

He also just completed an extensive training in EFT for couples and is very interested in providing couples therapy as a sizable chunk of his caseload! He will be accepting clients with BCBS, The Care Network, and self-pay.

To schedule an appointment, referrals can call (912)373-6165 or email: info@dochneycounseling.com

We are overwhelmed with gratitude for everyone who donated to our 5th annual toy drive for SAFE Shelter, Center for Domestic Violence Services, Inc. and Family Promise of the Coastal Empire, Inc. Your kindness and support will bring smiles and hope to children and families who deserve a moment of joy during difficult times.

Every Barbie, bicycle, remote control car, and other toys donated will brighten a child’s holiday and remind their parent(s) that they are surrounded by love and care. Your generosity makes a real difference in our local community and we couldn’t have done it without our donors. Together we were able to provide all of the toys on the wish list, clothing for each child, hand knit blankets, everything on the Mom’s wish list, and a generous donation to SAFE Shelter, Center for Domestic Violence Services, Inc. itself from a very special donor. In addition to all that, last week we were able to donate plenty of toys to Family Promise of the Coastal Empire - Bryan County as well!

A heartfelt thank you from us at Dochney Counseling and we wish everyone happy holidays and a Happy New Year ❤️

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday last week and wanted to provide a quick update. Family of Promise has asked us to deliver the toys next week for the parents at the shelter to “shop” through the donations and select gifts for their kids. We will need all gifts for Family of Promise donated by this Friday, December 6, 2024. They currently have all ages, from babies to teenagers in need of gifts for the holiday.

The toy drive for Safe Shelter will conclude the following Friday, December 13, 2024 so we can get the gifts wrapped and delivered by December 16, 2024.

Finally, a huge thank you to all of the generous people who have already donated ❤️

We had some little elves helping us get the office decorated and you know what that means…it’s time for our 5th annual toy drive!

We will be collecting toys, gift cards, etc. until Friday, December 13th that will be delivered to SAFE Shelter Center for Domestic Violence Services and Family of Promise. If you’d like to donate, you can leave a toy under the tree at our office, send a message to our Dochney Counseling, LLC page or text Elizabeth at (912)224-8609 so we can coordinate picking up your donation. Another way to help is simply by sharing this post to reach others that may like to donate! We are so grateful for our community and the ability to supporting these two organizations and the children and families they are helping. Happy Holidays from Dochney Counseling!

P.S. We will be adding a second post with a list of specific items on a wish list from Safe Shelter.
