Child & Adolescent Counseling

Children thrive on communication, and oftentimes when something is wrong in their lives, they have a hard time expressing their thoughts, feelings and fears. They need a safe place where they can work through their challenges. We offer a confidential setting, and our experienced therapists guide these children as they address any issues they might be facing — at home, at school or with friends.

Second Chance Program

Second Chance helps teens set goals for themselves and think about career opportunities. It helps guardians use positive parenting skills avoiding overly authoritative or overly passive tendencies.

Held in person at 1100 Rutherford Road, Greenville
Tuesday Evenings from 5:30 – 8:30 PM

Cost is $25 / week per family
Sliding scale fees with income verification.
