Family Counseling - Family therapy provides a place to learn how to be a harmonious family. It can be used for conflict resolution between family members or to help with developing coping skills or improving communication within the family structure.
Couples Counseling - Communication is the key to building and maintaining a stable and functional relationship. Sometimes it can be difficult to speak openly and honestly, especially when your partner may be critical and harsh. Couples counseling facilitates the opportunity for direct, open communication without being judged or allowing emotions to get in the way.

Often matters dealing with stress reactions, grief, depression, anger management, socialization problems, or other aspects of personal management of one's behaviors can be assisted with a variety of therapeutic techniques.
Substance Abuse - Our Substance Abuse Treatment Program is designed to assist individuals to recognize things that trigger their use and help them to learn the skills they can use to overcome their addictions.

Qualifying for assistance from Idaho's program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to Idaho's 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.
