Individual Counseling
Life isn’t
always easy.
There are problems
to solve and answers to find.
Counseling can help with the emotional,
psychological, or interpersonal issues
that pose challenges. Counselors listen
carefully to your concerns and help you
reach specific goals.
Free counseling services for individuals,
couples, and families, as well as
career counseling services are provided
by master’s-level counselors-in- training
under the supervision of fully licensed
Ph.D. counselors, marriage and family
therapists, and psychologists.
