During this time of the Covid 19 concerns, many of you are at home with family.  Something new, insurers will cover counseling sessions over the phone or through video. I am researching phone or teletherapy through video, something new to me.  If you want support during this time, you can email me at ray@hcs.care or call 509-413-2856.

Thanks, Charles Ray Hopkins

HCS  offers Hope, Compassion and Service to those who are seeking help.

HCS seeks to help people live out their lives in this world knowing they are valued and cared for.

Individual Counseling Listening to a person’s story with understanding, care, and compassion. Providing a counseling relationship of trust in which one’s concerns are shared. Once these concerns are heard, guidance and counsel is based upon what goals are important to each person in the counseling experience. Strategies of support are to help a person connect their current struggles with perceptions, emotions, and beliefs emerging from experiences in current or past relationships.

Marital Counseling To bring about intimacy through listening, understanding, validation, care and living out this challenge leading to meaningful relational intimacy in the covenant of marriage. Areas of support include developing a secure attachment in the marital relationship, deeper emotional understanding and connection, making sense of the impact of implicit memories that trigger conflict in the marital relationship. Speaking through communication through showing empathy toward each other.

Family Counseling, Teens, and Children  To help parents understand the unique family dynamics that challenge a couple’s ability to work as a team, or the unique challenges in single parenting, modeling for their children conflict resolution skills, emotional intelligence, delight and enjoyment of their children. Helping children through the world of play and developing a relationship of trust that allows them to talk openly in a safe environment. Helping teens through acceptance of what they face in life and how their experiences impacts their perceptions, beliefs and emotions. It is also important for each parent to develop empathy with each child.

HCS embraces these words, “I have come to release those who are captive, to help the blind see, and to bring healing to the broken hearted.” Jesus of Nazareth quoting Isaiah 61:1-2.
