Three ways in.Individual, couples and family counseling.
- Individual counselingAges ten and up · 60 minutes
One person, one hour, working on whatever has been going on long enough that the usual ways of handling it have stopped working. Anxiety, low mood, ADHD, grief, trauma, or a change you did not choose. You do not need a diagnosis or a tidy explanation to start.
$65 a session. Sliding scale available.
- Couples counselingBoth partners · 60 minutes
For couples who keep having the same argument and cannot find the exit, and for couples who are not fighting at all any more, which is usually the harder one. You do not have to arrive agreeing about what the problem is.
$85 a session. Sliding scale available.
- Family counselingParents, teens and preteens · 60 minutes
Often a household trying to talk to a teenager who has stopped answering, or parents who disagree about what to do next. Sometimes the useful first session is the parents on their own, and that is a normal place to begin.
$85 a session. Sliding scale available.
