FAQ

What can I/we expect in counseling?

You can expect in counseling to build a vision, a clear vision of what you want to have in your life and ways that you can get it. We’ll build on what you’re already doing that’s working and figure out the things that you need to do differently. Counseling will be collaborative. We’ll talk about things that you can do to move past obstacles so that you truly can live the life you want.

Do you have a handicap entrance?

Yes. We have an entrance located at the rear of the building and you can access it from the alley. We ask that you let our staff know if you are handicapped when you call to schedule an appointment, so arrangements can be made for you to see you a counselor on the first floor.
