Family-based counseling is delivered by a qualified therapist or mental health practitioner that most often occurs in the family home, or in another community location.
Our mental health practitioners and professionals use a person and family centered approach to understand your family’s strengths and needs. They work in collaboration with parents and youth to develop goals that increase stability in the home and community.
Using a strengths based perspective, our therapists and mental health practitioners use a variety of approaches to assist in navigating the challenges your family may be experiencing as well as finding ways to best meet the needs of your family.
Fees are determined by program and will be discussed with you.
For more information on how we can serve your family, please call our 507-287-2010 and ask to speak to the Family Based Clinical Program Supervisor.
