Our Response to COVID-19

We are aware that during this unusual time period that our services may need to be adjusted to meet client needs. In general, it has been our belief that face-to-face counseling is the most effective. In today’s world situation, however, we recognize some may prefer or need to stay in. In the light of this, we’re offering the option of telephone or encrypted telemed counseling to current and new clients. (These services are now offer through HIPPA compliant and encrypted services.) This option involves new clients filling out intake forms (links on first page of this site) and either faxing them to (817) 275-3720 or emailing them to our office at centerstaff@hotmail.com. Arrangement of payment method needs to be made with our office and we are glad to file insurance claims when appropriate. Credit cards are accepted. Our therapists are licensed in the state of Texas and we’re only offering this service to individuals in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

Our offices are sanitized daily and staff will maintain the appropriate distance. Safety is very much our concern.

If you are an existing client, just call the office and let it be known that you prefer this method of getting therapy. 817-275-3617 Your therapist will call you to arrange a session time. If you’re a new client, Dr. Carol Doss will return your call. You can fax in your intake form(s), which will be given to your therapist.

We want to be of help to anyone we can during this time of anxiety and uncertainty.

Career Counseling

counseling-career

People spend a significant chunk of their lives working, but many find themselves unhappy and frustrated in their careers. Career counseling can help pinpoint the best jobs for specific individual strengths.

Whether an individual is just beginning a work career or has been in the workforce for decades, career planning can help with future choices. Counselors begin by assisting clients to understand their particular personality. Different jobs are perfect for different people.

Introverts work best when they can have some work time alone. Extroverts thrive on activity and interaction. To determine clients’ best work situation, counselors will first administer the Myers Briggs Type Indicator. This instrument does not measure how mentally sick or healthy clients are, but instead attempts to describe personality attributes. Once clients understand their needs, they are better able to decide which jobs will best suit them.

If desired, clients may then take a vocational interest inventory such as the Kuder Preference Record or the Strong Interest Inventory. These measures can help focus clients’ academic or career efforts.

All jobs have some drawbacks, but a career that fits individual needs enables us to feel productive and happy.
