Our mission is to help children, youth and young adults with social-emotional or behavioral challenges learn the skills needed to be happy, healthy, and independent. Having the opportunity to be a guide, assisting an individual to overcome their challenges and being a part of that journey is one of the most rewarding joys of life.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What type of counseling license do you have?

Not every counselor is trained the same. Here are some common definitions that you will hear.
Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) has completed a masters degree in behavior analysis or education. They have 1500 hours of training in applied behavior analysis under the supervision of a BCBA. They have passed the BACB behavior analyst certification board national exam.
Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CMHC) has completed a masters degree in clinical mental health and at least 2 years of counseling under supervision and passed the national test. Or they were grandfathered in if they started practicing before 1991. A ACMHC is still under supervision and is working toward the full license.
Licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT)  has training in marriage and family therapy. They often also provide couples counseling. They have received a masters degree in marriage and family counseling and passed the national exam.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) have training in social work and have the broadest view. A LCSW has completed a masters degree in social work and 4000 hours of supervision under a licensed clinical social worker who received their supervision training plus an additional two years of field experience.

Q: Do you offer autism services

Yes we do! The most effective and evidence based practice for individuals with autism is applied behavior analysis (ABA). Practitioners of ABA are board certified or licensed professionals who observe, measure and change behaviors that are socially significant and sensitive to the rules of the local community. Evidence-based methods are utilized, behavior data is collected and used as a tool for decision making, and each behavior-change strategy applied is monitored closely for effectiveness. Some of the basic procedures used in ABA learning programs include shaping, prompting, differential reinforcement, errorless learning, extinction, and generalization. These programs may be adjusted based on the techniques used to “fit the individual’s learning needs” and response to intervention. 

Principles & Procedures Consistent with ABA Learning Programs

  • Shaping – The method of reinforcing successive approximations in order to teach a behavior
  • Antecedent Based Interventions
  • Pivotal Response Training 
  • Differential Reinforcement
  • Modeling
  • Extinction
  • Social Skills Training
  • Self Managment
  • Functional Communication training

Q: What type of therapy training do you have?

Depending on the program (Psychology, Counseling or Social Work) a counselor’s focus in therapy can be very different. Ask follow-up questions so that you are informed.

Q: What are the counseling sessions like?
This will give you an idea of what to expect. Some counselors have a clear plan, while others hear your story, some make Treatment Plans to help measure goals, while others don’t. Their approach should be similar to what you are looking for.
Q: What therapy theoretical approach do you take?
When you ask this question part of it is the actual theoretical approach. But really, you want a counselor that can translate complex psychological terms into everyday language. If they say that they do cognitive-behavioral therapy, that probably doesn’t mean much to you, so hopefully a counselor will explain that in everyday language.
Q: How many counseling sessions do I attend?

Counselors usually have an idea of how long clients attend therapy with them. Depending on what you are looking for, this can be an important question to ask.
