Center For Counseling Services

The Center For Counseling offers the following services for these concerns:

Individual, Couple or Marital, Family Counseling

Counselors work with all age groups around a broad range of issues and help the individual, couple or family work toward managing areas of concern.  This might include help with coping, learning new ways to manage or relate and working toward healing differences or concerns.

Group Counseling

Groups can offer the opportunity to engage with others who have similar areas of concern or interest toward coping, understanding or personal growth.  Groups are offered periodically on a range of topics including coping with divorce for adults or children, communication or shyness.

Divorce Mediation

Helps divorcing couples “uncouple”, develop new ways of relating to each other as parents and cooperate in the shared goals of raising the children.  Mediators serve as an impartial third party who can guide couples through the entire decision making process of divorce or help with specific areas where agreement has been difficult.  By helping couples mutually agree on the details of the divorce, mediators can help couples begin their new lives on positive terms, both individually and as a redefined family.

Kids First

A court required education program for divorcing parents that encourages ways to peacefully co-parent as the family copes with the many changes a divorce brings.  There is an emphasis on understanding and coping with the needs of parents and children during a divorce.  This 4 hour program is offered at convenient times each month.

Senior Outreach

Several members of the Center For Counseling team have experience in working with the unique concerns of Seniors and their families.  Traditional counseling services are supplemented with: services in the home when needed, help coping with general issues of aging such as changing health, long term planning, assessment and referral regarding cognitive changes, and caregiver concerns.
