Improving Services. There have been efforts to improve regulation and mon- itoring in the sector. One issue that the State Agency for Geology and Mineral Resources has addressed is the process of granting licences. The advisor to the head of the State Agency Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx highlighted that the agency now conducts auctions in such a way as to cre- ate a competitive environment and attract more inves- tors. The State Agency is also conducting auctions in the villages near to the deposit sites. Thus, they are including the local population in the process and raising residents’ awareness of the auctions. The State Agency has also announced a plan for 2014. The plan includes measures to simplify the process for applying for rights of access to subsoil minerals, trans- parent procedures in the awarding of licences, creating conditions that would allow for new medium and large deposits to be developed, and increasing the income from the mining sector to KGS 30 million (around USD 579,000) (Moiseeva 2014). These developments are a positive move, as experts have noted that many people do not trust the government to implement and enforce the laws. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx of GIZ argued that the State Agency should be seen as a neutral body, and should be engaged in explain- ing issues to communities near deposit sites. Likewise, it should be able to address people’s concerns about envi- ronmental pollution and provide factual information. He argued that if the State Agency is more engaged at the community level, it could help to minimize conflicts with mining companies. The support required for the State Agency also raises concerns about financial costs that could be used for other sectors. Xxxxxxxxx stressed that government spending on basic social services, such as hospitals and schools, should not be considered the same as spending on the State Agency. There is a difference in the rate of returns. Mining has a bigger financial return over a short period of time, whereas the financial and social returns from hospitals and schools are long term and so less evi- dent. »If you help the State Agency, [the country’s abil- ity to collect] taxes will increase and you will get more money. Today the agency is anorexic; they can’t work,« said Xxxxxxxxx.

  • Counseling Services People choose to participate in counseling for a variety of reasons. For most, the purpose of counseling is to generally improve one’s overall quality of life by addressing issues of concern, such as anxiety, depression, marital difficulties, addiction, or grief. Individual experiences in counseling can be different, depending on factors such as the personalities of the client and therapist, the mode of counseling techniques that the therapist utilizes, the issue(s) being addressed, and the amount of effort that the client puts forth. Your initial sessions with Encourage Counseling Services will involve an evaluation of your needs. By the end of the evaluation, your therapist will be able to offer you some first impressions of what your work will include and a treatment plan to follow, if you decide to continue with therapy. You should evaluate this information along with your own opinions of whether you feel comfortable working with us. Therapy involves a commitment of time, money, and energy, so you should be very careful about the therapist you select. If you have questions about our procedures, you should discuss them with your therapist whenever they arise. If you wish, we will willingly provide you with referrals to other mental health professionals for a second opinion, as you always have the right to choose to continue to receive counseling services from us or to ask to be referred to someone else. Following the assessment period, which is typically one to two sessions, one 50-minute session will be scheduled per week. Sessions will occur at a time you and your therapist agree upon, although sessions may be scheduled more or less frequently according to your needs. It is important to note that if you are late to your appointment, your session will still end at the originally scheduled time. It should be noted that therapy can have benefits, as well as potential risks. Since therapy oftentimes involves discussing difficult aspects of your life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings such as sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness, and helplessness. Making changes in your beliefs or behaviors can be anxiety provoking, and can be disruptive to your current relationships. However, therapy has also been shown to have many benefits. For example, therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and significant reductions in feelings of distress. Of course, every individual’s experience is different and there are no guarantees of what you will experience. It is important that you carefully consider whether these risks are worth the benefits to you of changing. Most people who take these risks find that therapy is helpful. Finally, the therapeutic relationship is ended after the last scheduled appointment, or when so stated by you or your therapist. As the client, you typically will be the one who decides when therapy will end, which usually occurs once you and your therapist agree that you have met your treatment goals. However, there are a few exceptions. One such exception is if your therapist does not believe that he/she is professionally able to meet your needs. This could possibly be because your therapist does not believe that he/she holds the proper training and skills to help you, due to the type of presenting problem that you have. In such a situation your therapist will refer you to another therapist who may be able to meet your counseling needs.
