Counseling Services

Many people seek counseling because they have had major stresses and are in crisis due to relationship issues, job loss, parenting, sexual orientation, depression, substance use, or other problems. It takes courage to confront these issues and develop new coping strategies while struggling to maintain jobs and relationships.

Our licensed therapists can help  you as an individual, if you are part of a couple, or if your family needs help. Our Counseling Services program can pair you with a therapist specializing in your needs: First Step professionals treat children enrolled in  MediCal; Rainbow counselors attend to those in the LGBTIQ community or those questioning their sexual orientation; and Renaissance therapists serve seniors enrolled in Medicare Part B.

While we strive to keep our services affordable, you may be asked to pay a portion of the fees. Your share will be based on a sliding scale related to your monthly income.

Please contact one of our offices to ask for more information or to schedule an appointment.
