Individual Consulting

1:1 with peer mentors or senior clinicians

We limit access to these services to a maximum of four sessions. As a company devoted to skill-building, our focus is on supporting families to develop skills to make change, not simply talk about it. While we recognize the value of a safe place to discuss decisions, or simply talk about complex and sometimes scary emotions, we want to help your family move forward constructively. If additional support is needed, we will recommend clinicians for additional services.
