Pathways to Success is a professional counseling service dedicated to providing skills for a more satisfying life. Pathways’ philosophy seeks to destigmatize psychological disorders by framing them as “challenges in life.” Indeed, there is much to gain from these challenges. There are many skills available to turn sensitivities into assets.

If we compare clinical therapy to physical therapy, we see similarities. In physical therapy, you seek assistance in repairing or strengthening an injury of the body. Similarly, counseling helps you repair or strengthen the mind.

Some people ask “what’s the difference between counseling and psychotherapy?” The two terms are often used interchangeably. Another term that is used less often is clinical therapy.

Coaching is another path to meeting your needs. It places an emphasis on goals co-created by the client and counselor/coach. These goals are specific, measurable, action oriented, realistic, and time-defined.

Counseling and coaching both use the conscious mind. This is the part of the mind we typically use throughout our day – analytical & task-oriented.

Hypnosis allows us to work with a different part of the mind, the unconscious (some say subconscious) mind. There is great potential waiting to be tapped in our unconscious. This part of the mind is the reservoir of our self-concept, our habits, and our beliefs about the world and relationships. It’s the creative part of our mind, and it permits unique, effective solutions to challenges that don’t always resolve through use of the conscious mind. Hypnosis is a naturally-occurring state of mind, and you are always in control. The wide range of applications for hypnosis includes medical anesthesia and enhanced healing, sports performance, treatment of phobias, and emotional healing.
