Office of Children, Adolescents and Families

Child/Adolescent

Are you overwhelmed by your child’s behavior?

Are you unsure if changes in your child’s behavior reflect the normal challenges in child development or are signs and symptoms of complex or emerging issues?

Counseling for children and adolescents allows them to learn more about themselves, their strengths and how to problem solve obstacles in their lives. Starting with an initial assessment our trained counselors will identify current issues and develop a plan to reduce distress and regulate emotions.

Family Counseling

Family dynamics can be challenging to navigate without a trained counselor working to improve cohesiveness within a neutral therapeutic setting.

Family counseling may actively involve members of your immediate or extended family or significant others.

When the family unit communicates within a therapeutic setting it allows the counselor to address the needs of everyone simultaneously. Family counseling is available only to current clients of the Office of Children, Adolescents, and Families.
