Coldwater Counseling Center

Very grateful for this place. I highly recommend.

My first foray into counseling and it couldn’t be better. That’s all I should say, I guess, but thumbs up!

Is it appropriate to Unilocal your therapist?
I’m not so sure, but considering how many times I’ve stopped into Coldwater Counseling Center in the past year or so, it seems like it would be completely obvious that I would have written it up by now!
Where do I even begin?
Well, I started therapy last year after my life started to feel out of control. I was pretty down– unemployed/​underemployed, dating the wrong guy, spending too much $$$ on credit cards, feeling like my family was a total disaster.
Something had to change– and being a fairly self-​aware person, I knew that all of that chaos was ultimately coming from me.
So I googled low-​cost therapy options, and I found CCC. I made a phone call and left a message for a woman who matches those in need of counseling. She set me up with Nancy, an incredibly warm woman who is working through her nine trillion clinical hours.
And I went. One hour a week, three weeks a month, sometimes four depending on scheduling– Nancy spends one weekend a month at school, and I can’t always come during the week. Besides just showing up, I spend a lot of time thinking about things like boundaries, terrible things that other people have made me think about myself, and about the world. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the kinds of relationships I want in my life, the kind of job I want, the kind of future I want, etc.
I’m not going to tell you that everything in my life is perfect, it certainly isn’t. But it’s much better, more manageable, and it’s good to know that an hour a week, I can say, think, and feel any damn thing that I want to. Without judgement.
And to me, that’s worth five stars.
