Such services may include, but are not limited to, individual, couple, family, and group counseling with children, adolescents, and adults. Client concerns range from developmental and relational concerns to more severe pathology. All clinical experiences are performed under the direct supervision of a licensed/certified professional counselor and include both individual and group supervision on a weekly basis.</p>",
