Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I start the process of growth through counseling or coaching?

2. Do you accept insurance as payment?
    Answer:  Yes, usually -- both for EAP and mental health issues.  It depends on the insurance you have.  Some policies provide some coverage for some mental health issues, and your responsibility for co-pay varies.  Our office manager will receive your information about your insurance and help you determine what your insurance benefits are.

3  Are the therapists available to speak to my club or group?
    Answer:  Yes.  Subject to time availability, they would be glad to bring a program to your club or group.  They are currently interested in talking to groups about the need to detect signs of mental health problems in children early enough to intercept them before they erupt into behavior that will get them in trouble with the law.

  Answer: 
A portion or all of the therapist's services are frequently covered by medical insurance.
