The WISE Play Therapy & Counseling Clinic provides an array of mental health counseling services as a positive approach to dealing with life's challenges and transitions.

What is professional counseling?

Counseling is a collaborative effort between the counselor and client. Professional counselors and Counselors-in-training help clients identify goals and potential solutions to problems which cause emotional turmoil; seek to improve communication and coping skills; strengthen self-esteem; and promote behavior change and optimal mental health.

(American Counseling Association, 2021)

  • Welcoming Atmosphere

    We foster an atmosphere of acceptance that welcomes clients from all cultures, genders, sexual orientations, disability statuses and social classes.
