Patricia Maynard was absolutely wonderful working with my daughter and me for PCIT. I would highly recommend her!

This is a government ran agency I believe. They are helpful to those who don't have insurance or don't have coverage for the types of services offered here. Helpful meaning low cost services. But you get what you pay for. The EC is a large facility off of Union that primarily offers counseling services and classes related to mental and emotional health. We had to take our children here a little while back. We were assigned student interns two different occasions. I understand they need to start somewhere, but I felt like with no direct oversight by an instructor, this could cause issues at a time when things are already very delicate and sensitive. I tried to get in contact with the director multiple times, but it seemed nearly impossible. Getting a first appointment here can take several weeks, so be warned. The EC waiting area has a few chairs and a bookshelf full of children and adult books to read while you wait in the lobby. The front door to the building is securely locked at all times and you must be paged in to enter. This is a nice security feature considering the EC is used for many broken, hurting families and this just keeps everyone safe. The interns are friendly and good with children. However, the kids' counseling is strictly play therapy and nothing further. They do not actually counsel or talk about anything. So if you go in knowing that, you will probably be fine. read more
