FEES:   

Fees for Assessments and for group counseling depend on a person's circumstances and income.   Fees for individual counseling also are based on circumstances and income.  In some cases a person's insurance may cover a part of the fee.  Grants help pay the cost when clients are not able to cover the entire fee which is why we are able to offer reduced rates based on income.  Decisions about the amount of the fee are determined prior to the start of counseling.
