FAQ
What is coworker counseling and how does it work?
Coworker counseling is specialized therapy designed to help colleagues improve their professional relationships and resolve workplace conflicts. We work with pairs or small groups of coworkers to address communication breakdowns, personality clashes, and collaborative challenges that impact productivity and workplace satisfaction.
Do both coworkers need to attend sessions together?
While joint sessions are often most effective, we can also work with individuals who want to improve their workplace relationships. Joint sessions allow both parties to practice communication skills in real-time, but individual coaching can help you develop strategies for better workplace interactions.
What types of workplace relationship issues do you address?
We help with communication conflicts, personality differences, power dynamics, collaboration challenges, boundary issues, trust breakdowns, and conflicts arising from different work styles. Our approach focuses on practical solutions that improve both working relationships and overall team dynamics.
How confidential are coworker counseling sessions?
All sessions are completely confidential. We maintain strict professional boundaries and do not share information with supervisors, HR, or other colleagues without explicit consent from all participants. This creates a safe space for honest communication and problem-solving.
Can coworker counseling help with manager-employee relationships?
Yes, we work with supervisory relationships where both parties are committed to improvement. These sessions focus on communication styles, feedback delivery, boundary setting, and creating more effective working partnerships while respecting professional hierarchies.
How long does coworker counseling typically take?
Most coworker counseling involves 4-8 sessions, depending on the complexity of the issues and the willingness of participants to engage in the process. Some workplace conflicts can be resolved quickly with better communication tools, while deeper relationship patterns may require more time to address.
