Exclusive Services

Encompass Counseling and Mental Health Services offers counseling for children ages 4 and older, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Our clinicians work with clients facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, life changes, and emotional or behavioral challenges.

​

Individual counseling provides a private space to explore concerns, develop coping skills, and work toward personal goals. Child and adolescent counseling uses approaches suited to each young person’s age and needs, with family involvement when appropriate. Couples and family counseling helps people improve communication, work through conflict, and strengthen relationships.

​

We also offer group counseling focused on shared experiences and skills, including grief, teen empowerment, women’s support, and anger management. For clients referred through the courts, our team can discuss the referral requirements and whether Encompass is an appropriate fit.

​

Our staff works together to help each client receive thoughtful, coordinated care.

Medication management at Encompass Counseling and Mental Health Services helps clients understand their treatment options and receive ongoing support when psychiatric medication is appropriate. Our psychiatrist, Dr. Nurul Hoque, evaluates symptoms and health history, discusses potential benefits and side effects, and prescribes medication when clinically indicated.

​

During follow-up visits, Dr. Hoque monitors how well a medication is working, addresses concerns, and adjusts the treatment plan as needed. He works with our counseling and nursing team to coordinate care. Medication management is available only to clients who are participating in counseling services at Encompass Counseling.

Biofeedback can be a useful adjunct to mental health treatment because it helps clients become more aware of how their body responds to stress and learn skills to regulate those responses.

• Reduces stress and physical tension by teaching clients to recognize and control signs such as rapid breathing, muscle tension, and increased heart rate.

• Supports anxiety management by helping clients practice relaxation and self-regulation techniques in real time.

• Improves emotional regulation by increasing awareness of the connection between emotions and physiological reactions.

• May reduce panic symptoms by teaching clients how to slow breathing and calm their nervous system.

• Promotes relaxation through breathing exercises, muscle relaxation, and heart-rate regulation.

• May improve sleep when stress, tension, or hyperarousal are contributing to difficulty falling or staying asleep.

• Helps with trauma-related symptoms by supporting grounding and regulation of heightened arousal, when used appropriately within trauma-informed care.

• Can improve focus and attention for some clients by strengthening awareness and self-regulation skills.

• May help with anger management by allowing clients to identify physical signs of escalation before emotions become overwhelming.

• Can reduce stress-related physical complaints, such as tension headaches, jaw clenching, or muscle tightness.

Encompass Counseling and Mental Health Services offers academic testing to help identify a student’s learning strengths and areas where additional support may be helpful. Testing may explore skills such as reading, writing, mathematics, and other abilities related to school performance.

​

Our team reviews the student’s history and current concerns, selects appropriate assessments, and explains the results and recommendations to the family. Findings can help parents and educators discuss learning strategies, school supports, or whether additional evaluation is needed. Testing is tailored to the student’s needs and the specific questions being asked.
