We work with teens and young adults throughout Central Ohio and their families.
Our counseling services are available to teens and young adults ages 12 to 23 and their families. We often work with youth who have spent time in our Crisis Shelter and those in our Transitional Living Program. But we work with many other young people in our community as well. We help address a wide range of issues including:
- Anger
- Anxiety
- Behavioral concerns
- Crisis situations
- Depression
- Family conflict
- Parenting
- Relationship issues
- School problems
- Stress management
- Trauma and PTSD
We talk about what you want to talk about.
Our therapists really want to help teens, young adults and families with the issues that matter most to them. We’ll ask you about what you’d like to accomplish in therapy, and we’ll work with you to develop goals and focus on what’s important to you.
We can help prevent a crisis before it happens.
If problems with you or your family are getting too challenging to manage on your own, we invite you to come talk to us. We can give you skills and tips from keeping problems from getting out of hand.
We use what’s right to solve what’s wrong.
Everyone has problems. But everyone has strengths, too. We’ll help you find your strong points and use them to work on the problem areas.
We partner with you for the long-term.
Typically, we work with young people for about six months. We meet once a week for about an hour. Your therapist will continue to work with you and/or your family until you feel like you have met your goals.
We like to offer a combination of individual and family counseling.
If your family is involved in your treatment, our therapists like to meet separately with you and your parents or guardians. We also like to hold family sessions where everyone works together on issues. Other members of the family, including siblings, are welcome to participate.
What you say is confidential.
What you tell us during your sessions is confidential. The only exception is if you tell us you want to hurt yourself or someone else. If you are under the age of 18, we also have to report if someone hurts you. Many times, young people tell us things that we think are important for a parent or guardian to hear. In these cases, we encourage the teen to talk with their parent or guardian, and we are always able to help with that conversation, if our clients would like.
You don’t have to come to Huck House for counseling.
We do offer a safe and confidential environment for counseling at Huck House. And we do have a couch –but you don’t have to lie down on it or even sit on it if you don’t want. You actually don’t even if have to come to Huck House at all. If you can’t or prefer not to come to us, we can come to you. We can meet you at your home, at your child’s school, or even at the park if that’s best for you. We offer counseling services during the day as well as evenings to fit you and your family’s schedule.
Our counseling services are free to the majority of clients we serve.
If you have Medicaid, your benefits will cover your counseling. If you live in Franklin County and don’t have insurance, the cost may be covered by the Alcohol, Drug, and Mental Health Board of Franklin County depending on your income. Currently, we do not accept private insurance, but do accept self-pay.
