Pfeiffer Institute Reach

Do I really need therapy? I can usually handle my problems. 

Everyone goes through challenging situations in life, and while you may have successfully navigated through other difficulties you’ve faced, there’s nothing wrong with seeking out extra support when you need it. In fact, therapy is for people who have enough self-awareness to realize they need a helping hand, and that is something to be admired. You are taking responsibility by accepting where you’re at in life and making a commitment to change the situation by seeking therapy. Therapy provides long-lasting benefits and support, giving you the tools you need to avoid triggers, re-direct damaging patterns, and overcome whatever challenges you face.

Why Use a Marriage and Family Therapist?
Marriage and Family Therapists help people respond to life’s changes by helping them explore their current circumstances and work with them to reach their goals. Using the “systems” approach, MFTs assist clients in identifying what is happening internally and how that is playing out in their relationships. Individuals, couples and families often seek help for behavioral problems, mental and emotional disorders and relational problems from MFTs.

Who will I be meeting with?
Therapists at Pfeiffer Institute Reach are advanced graduate students in the Pfeiffer University (RDU) Marriage and Family Therapy Program. They are closely supervised by licensed faculty, so all therapy sessions are recorded and sometimes observed. This is to make sure that your clinician does the best possible work with you; your information is held confidential within the limits of the law.
