Helping Students & Families

Our specialty is working with adolescents, young adults and their families. Many of our students come to us with complexities affecting their lives both in and out of the classroom. Some may be having difficulties with learning or educational achievement, while others may be struggling with their families, with peers or with the negative influences in their lives. Others may even be having problems with the law, with over use of computers/technology or with drugs and alcohol. Often times their struggles are not easily compartmentalized and consequently many aspects of their lives become affected. Making the maze for getting help that much more complicated to navigate.
