Services
Outpatient Counseling
Our outpatient counseling connects clients with licensed therapists specializing in individual, couples, family, and group therapy. Services address anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues through evidence-based modalities like CBT and EMDR. Therapists maintain flexible scheduling and sliding-scale fees to ensure accessibility for all clients.
Employee Assistance Program
The EAP provides confidential mental health services for employees, including crisis intervention and work-life balance counseling. Partnering employers receive suicide prevention training and mental health resources, with seamless therapist matching that preserves existing therapeutic relationships while maintaining strict privacy protections.
School Outreach Program
This program delivers free mental health services to K-12 students in 28 school districts. Therapists address anxiety, behavioral issues, and trauma through individual and group sessions while providing crisis response teams for school emergencies, removing financial and transportation barriers to youth mental healthcare.
Suicide Prevention Training
Our nationally certified QPR training teaches Question-Persuade-Refer techniques to identify and assist at-risk individuals. Participants learn suicide risk factors, intervention strategies, and local resource referrals through both in-person and virtual sessions for community organizations, schools, and workplaces.
Community Support Groups
Free support groups offer peer connection for grief, suicide loss, and life challenges. Facilitated by licensed clinicians, these groups provide structured environments for sharing experiences and developing coping strategies, with no insurance requirements and flexible meeting times including evening sessions.
