Outpatient assessment and counseling services at Integrative Counseling Solutions, Inc. (ICSI) are based upon developing a trusted relationship between the client and mental health professional. These services are provided by Licensed Independent Social Workers (LISW) or Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHC). This process begins with a complete assessment to accurately determine the therapeutic needs of the client. Together, the client and therapist develop a treatment plan to meet the therapeutic needs of the individual. With consent of the client, other involved persons may be asked to participate in treatment. These services are provided to individuals, families and groups.

The Partners Program is a strengths based program which creates alliances within communities, schools and families to increase children's strengths in all aspects of their lives. Our LISW and LMHC professionals also meet the criteria to be Licensed Professional of the Healing Arts (LPHA) and provide assessment services for children funded by Medicaid funds.

The Partners Program works with children and families to help them; learn how to identify individual strengths, identify thoughts, feelings and triggers to the child's behaviors, learn problem solving, communications and social skills as well as relaxation, coping and conflict resolutions skills. Master’s level trained caseworkers help families gain extra support in getting through life's challenges. By addressing challenging behaviors and collaborating with home and school, the Partners Program can help children get back on track and succeed at home and school.
