Child and Adolescent Counseling
Childhood and adolescence are often tumultuous stages for most children and teenagers in these chaotic and uncertain times. ABCpsych can help your son or daughter deal with their issues, including depression, bullying, self-harm, self-esteem, and self-identity issues.
Couples/Premarital/Marital Counseling
The road to falling in love and getting married can be a rocky one. ABCpsych has helped couples identify hidden issues, including deal breakers, before they get married. We have resolved fundamental problems that have plagued married and non-married couples through mediation, and trust or intimacy building. Many couples have poor communication skills, or other problems; thus, they discover why their sexual and emotional intimacy is lacking.
