New Services & Staff to Celebrate Counseling Awareness Month

April is Counseling Awareness Month and Genesis Counseling Center is celebrating by expanding several areas of service and by welcoming three new staff members.

Genesis Assessment Services is now offering more psychological, neurological and education testing. Genesis offers state of the art testing for Asperger syndrome and the autism spectrum. Genesis Assessment Services could be the right next step if you have wrestled with questions like:

• Are you a frustrated learner?
• An “out of the box” thinker who others don’t seem to understand?
• Struggling with gripping fear or sadness?
• Suffering from memory issues that just won’t go away?

Genesis is also pleased to announce the opening of their Art Therapy program. According to the American Art Therapy Association, “Art Therapy uses art media, the creative process and the resulting artwork to explore feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, reduce anxiety and increase self-esteem.” Art Therapy is a practice that is suitable for all ages and can be done by individuals or in groups.

A part of Counseling Awareness Month, Genesis would like to welcome the addition of Three New Therapists (Michelle Miller, LCSW, Carolyn Bridges, Psy.D. and Bob Rubinow, LPC) to their Hampton and Yorktown Offices.
