For referring professionals

We help systems function better

You can't help a child without understanding their system. A struggling student is often carrying something from home. An underperforming employee's family may be in crisis.

How we work with your referrals

Every client gets a full assessment of their medical, psychological, and social picture, their family patterns, and their readiness for change. With the client's permission we keep you informed about progress and tell you if a higher level of care is needed. Your referral gets the full benefit of our team.

Our practice serves the full diversity of Central Pennsylvania, including people of color, working-class families, women, the LGBTQ+ community, and Spanish-speaking families.

Schools and school counselors

Complex cases need more than weekly individual counseling. We think systemically, collaborate with you, keep you informed, and coordinate care across every place your student gets support. For students under 18 or living at home, we'll likely recommend family counseling alongside or instead of individual work.

EAP professionals and corporate wellness

Personal crisis often affects work. We help employees understand their full picture and make real changes, both in their own wellbeing and in how their relationships affect their work.

Primary care physicians and healthcare providers

We explore root causes of anxiety, depression, and trauma and communicate with you about our work. We recognize medication's usefulness and recommend psychiatric consultation when appropriate.

Courts and probation

Our New Footing D&A evaluations provide court-ready drug and alcohol evaluations, and we consider court-ordered parental reunification cases in Lancaster.
