This counseling can help people process the trauma of a diagnosis. Understanding the feelings that go along with the grief experience will help ease fears and facilitate the adjustment process to promote skills building and development of tools to manage these emotions.

Our Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) works one-on-one with individuals to ensure they can achieve their goals. Adjustment-to-blindness counseling offers the opportunity to explore and problem solve perceived and actual losses associated with loss of sight and also reinforces that you can still do many things, just in different ways to support confidence and self-esteem.

During this process, clients receive emotional support and encouragement while gaining information for living well with vision loss.
