Austin Child and Guidance Walk-In Counseling Service

Research has shown that one hour of counseling can help many people to get started in a new direction. Walk-in counseling allows that to happen at a moment in time that best fits the needs of the family. Children up to the age of 17 as well as other family members can be seen without having to wait for an appointment. Parents can be seen without their child to consult about problem behavior, seek advice or get direction. Family members can for be seen for one walk-in session or return for more.

WHEN: Fridays from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. People who walk-in are seen on a first come first serve basis.
WHERE: Austin Child Guidance Center, 810 45th Street
BY WHOM: Qualified mental health professionals who are specially trained to work in this 50-minute format
