NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENTS FOR CHILDREN & ADOLESCENTS - If you feel like your child is not meeting his or her potential, we are here to figure out the root cause of the problem and develop a plan to address it. We do this through utilization of the most innovative and comprehensive psychological assessments in the field.
LGB/TQ+ BEHAVIOR HEALTH - Affirming and supportive counseling and psychotherapy for LGB/TQ+ individuals, couples and families
COUPLE & MARRIAGE - Like air, food and water, close connection (attachment) is fundamental to who we are as a species. But navigating the challenges when two people build a life together is rarely easy. Until the day comes when every school curriculum teaches the skills needed for successful partnership, couples will struggle to communicate and problem-solve effectively all the while facing the disharmony and distress that so often colors a couple's landscape.
FAMILY - Our therapists listen to and work closely with families through difficult times and everyday life. We provide families across the lifespan tools to navigate their intertwined relationships and the challenges they face.
INDIVIDUAL - We work with individuals as they face the challenges of life - whether they're dealing with relationship struggles, sexual or gender identity exploration, anxiety, depression or another issue. Individual therapy gives you the chance to see your challenges in a new light and make effective changes that work for you.
SPECIALIZED SERVICES - An effective approach for treating anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression, CBT is a problem-focused, skills-based treatment intervention. It teaches adolescents to identify and modify unhelpful behavior and thinking patterns that may cause or increase anxiety and distress.
Fees and Payment
We are committed to helping regardless of the ability to pay. Through the Bette D. Harris Clinic located within each of our four locations, therapists-in-training provide services on a sliding fee scale. Our staff therapists provide ongoing supervision and regular consultation. In the most complex cases, we provide team therapy with both a student and experienced therapist working side-by-side.
Services Offered To: Adults Couples Teens Children
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.
