We provide counseling, consultation, and group therapy services within public schools in Central MA, reaching children where they are in their community. Schools refer students for in-school counseling services. Parents/guardians give permission for their child to receive services and to use their health insurance to cover sessions’ costs at no cost to the school (insurance co-payments may apply, and schools may also identify grants or other funding sources as a secondary payment option).
