Home & Office Based Coaching specializes in female clients and offers clients the convenience of services in their home or office settings.

Home & Office Based Mental Health Services makes every effort to provide services to clients in the least restrictive, most comfortable setting available. In many cases, clients’ homes or offices represent the ideal location. Obvious benefits of home & office -based services include convenience and comfort for clients, which can overcome many barriers to traditional office-based care. Therapeutic advantages include the potential for the provider to view clients in a natural environment and to direct treatment from the standpoint of clients. Cultural differences can also be surmounted when visiting clients in their own home, as this influences clinicians to adjust their thinking to that of their clients.Providing services in clients’ homes reveals the realities of clients lives to a skilled counselor. Clients may unknowingly attempt to represent themselves in an unrealistic manner for an isolated hour in a providers office, but in their own environment, clients tend to be more at ease with themselves and their surroundings. This physical environment offers the provider indicators of strengths, lifestyle choices, cultural background, and/or financial challenges. While meeting in the home, the provider can observe clients' response to circumstances that would not occur within the confines of an office. In addition, the counselor observes relational interactions among family members that are more natural as they communicate with one another in their own home.The home-based provider works with clients to determine the frequency and duration of appointments. Home-based visits can help clients de-escalate a crisis and avoid hospitalization which empowers clients to address difficulties directly and effectively. Home & Office Based Mental Health Services engages clients in problem-solving discussions about mental health problems. The goal of such service is to promote in clients positive orientation, relief of excess stress, and growth toward more integrated and independent levels of functioning. Services are delivered through a scheduled series of evaluation, intervention, and treatment processes. Their purpose is to identify and then treat the emotional needs and problems of clients.
