SERVICES

At Cedar Valley Counseling Services, we understand that one size does not fit all when it comes to mental health.

 

You are unique. And so are your concerns. Our goal is to provide the knowledge, skills, and, most importantly, the support you need.

What Is Counseling?

 

Life happens. And sometimes it is a lot to handle. We’ve been there as well.

 

Professional counseling provides you with support, coping skills, and someone trained to listen during times of stress or struggle.

 

We are also here to help you celebrate those wins, no matter how small. (And yes, getting out of bed and showering are both wins!)

 

Seeking therapy may help you learn techniques for reducing anxiety and coping with depression. You can process grief and trauma without judgment.

 

Therapists give you a safe space to let your guard down, be “you” and share it all without having to sugar coat it.

 

A counseling session is like a mirror to what you are saying, thinking or feeling. Sometimes you aren’t able to understand what you are dealing with until someone else says it.

 

At times, your counselor may (gently) challenge you or encourage you to see things or try things in a different way.

 

What Counseling is Not

 

For the professional counseling relationship to develop and be of the utmost help, it takes time. And effort. On your part and ours.

 

We’ve learned counseling is not:

  • Always easy

  • A quick fix

  • A one and done process

  • An instant answer or solution

 

We are willing to work with you if you are willing to work with us.

 

We do know counseling can be one of the best things you will ever do for yourself, your family, and your loved ones.

Individual Counseling

People seek individual counseling for a variety of reasons. You may be living with depression, coping with anxiety, or dealing with too much stress from work. We can help.

 

Sometimes the circumstances are painful grief or trauma. We can help.

 

Maybe your life just isn’t playing out the way you hoped and you are coping in unhealthy ways. We can help.

 

Individual therapy appointments are available for teens (16+) and adults.

Couples Counseling

 

Almost every committed relationship will experience ups and downs. Sometimes you can talk through things, but other times it can be tough. We can help you learn more about how relationships work and how you can be there for each other. 

We help couples navigate relationship stressors, improve communication and offer relationship or parenting support.

 

We work with each committed couple as a unit to understand your unique dynamic. We are here to support your goals as a couple. 

Business and Group Workshops

 

Employee mental health is vital to a business' success. We provide a wide array of services from seminars and team building programs to staff development and improving group dynamics. If your goal is to keep your employees happy and productive, let us help.

Do you have a team that needs some motivation, inspiration, or education? Or all of the above?

Our mental health professionals have multiple programs that can be adapted to fit your organization's needs. Reach out to see how we can help your team achieve great things.

Our providers have participated in a variety of work-related events including health fairs, workshops and critical incident responses.

Scheduling an Appointment

If you are interested in scheduling an appointment with us, please call us at 319-239-3533 or use the contact form on our homepage. 

Appointments are about an hour. Before your first appointment, we will have to complete our new client paperwork using our secure client portal. 

We are not able to provide emergency or 24/7 services. If you are experiencing thoughts of harming yourself or others, please seek immediate emergency attention by dialing 911. You can also call 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline to speak to someone. Know that you are not alone and there is help available. 

Telehealth Options

Some of our providers offer telehealth appointments. Please discuss this option with your provider.

Ten minutes prior to your video appointment, you should have a link in your email. This is a unique link for each session. Links are not sent via text reminders. 

Once you click on the link, just enter your name and join the video call with your counselor.

If you have any problems, please call our office at 319-239-3533.

Feeling Sick or COVID-19 Concerns 

For everyone's safety and wellbeing, if you are not feeling well, please reschedule your appointment or ask for a telehealth link so you can have a secure session from home.

If you have tested positive for COVID-19 or have been exposed to someone with COVID, please reschedule or have a telehealth appointment. We'd like to minimize everyone's exposure, clients and staff, to any illnesses.

Call our office 319-239-3533 to reschedule or get a telehealth link.
