A mental health nurse practitioner provides individual and
family counseling services. These services offer an avenue
for expressing feelings and a method for coping with stress.
In a supportive and confidential environment, patients and
families can gain insight into their feelings and relief from
their distress.
The primary goals of counseling are:
- relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety
- improved quality of life
- enhanced communication among family members
- more effective pain relief
- education regarding practical stress management techniques
including guided imagery and meditation
- facilitation of shared decision making
- bereavement support
