Medical Adjustment Counseling
Our practice specializes in Medical Adjustment Counseling (MAC). Unlike traditional Mental Health Counseling, MAC deals specifically with the emotional and thinking changes that often accompany medical conditions and physical trauma. Adjusting to, and understanding these changes can be extremely difficult for a person. Psychological overlay nearly always accompanies physical trauma.
We Can Help.
Patient’s develop a variety of adjustment strategies in order to work effectively with their medical condition. The focus of MAC is on the residuals of the medical condition and unlike traditional psychotherapy not necessarily on past issues.
Our focus is three-tiered point and addresses the concerns our patients have expressed over the years.
• Education - Understanding what you have
• Strategy development - Understanding what to do with what you have
• Application - Understanding where you are going
