Services Offered
Treatment includes an initial assessment and evaluation, followed by individual, marital, and/or family counseling. Our counselors are experienced in treating children, adolescents, and adults.
Premarital Counseling Our goal is to help couples evaluate their relationship and to equip them with the skills needed to begin a life-long season of marital growth and contentment.
Private counseling affords the ability to customize the sessions and to more fully address the individual couple's needs and issues. The engaged couple, or a couple contemplating becoming engaged, meets privately with a counselor for 6 sessions. In addition, we recommend that during the first year of marriage the couple schedules a "marital check-up" at the end of the 3rd, 6th, and 12th month.
Support Groups We have a number of support and recovery groups for you and your family

Qualifying for assistance from Texas' program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to Texas' program.
A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
