Individual counseling
NSYC counselors are licensed professionals providing safe, confidential counseling to children and adults, ages 5 and older. Our clinicians are experienced in a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, addiction, alcohol and substance abuse, ADHD/ASD, social issues, behavioral issues, and bereavement. Counselors can also provide crisis intervention and referrals for additional services, if necessary. Counseling is provided in person at our office or through our secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform.
couples and family counseling
NSYC clinicians can help couples and families of all types recognize and resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. Our counselors maintain supportive environments to help individuals gain clarity, develop effective communication, and strengthen problem-solving skills to produce positive outcomes.
Group Services
In addition to counseling services, NSYC offers unique group programs that target and nurture specific areas, including learning and reinforcing social skills, developing healthy coping skills, managing and reducing stress and anxiety, and identifying and understanding emotions:

school-based student assistance counseling
NSYC student assistance counselors play a critical role in substance abuse education, prevention, mental health wellness, treatment, and fostering a safe and confidential place for youth to communicate during the school day. Our counselors work in collaboration with school administrators and teachers to resolve issues that are significantly impacting a student's ability to succeed in the classroom and in a variety of social settings. They help build students’ developmental assets and resiliency, and become a bridge between school and the home.
