Counseling

Our counselors often hear the phrase, “If it hadn’t been for you,” reflecting clients’ feelings about how life might have been without the compassionate, professional counseling they received at Diakon Family Life Services.

With an emphasis on promoting relationships by using a positive approach that builds family strengths, Diakon Family Life Services helps clients to handle challenges and emotions ranging from life-threatening situations and addictions to vague feelings that life could be better. We help people to see beyond the clouds, to take the steps necessary to gain a sense of balance and control again.

Issues confronted in counseling include ...

  • Relationships
  • Parenting
  • Personal crises
  • Loss and grief
  • Separation or divorce
  • Substance abuse
  • Stress, anger, or other difficult emotions
  • Work issues

Of course, counseling is not just for adults. Children and teens often benefit immensely from talking about their concerns. To meet children's special needs, our services include children's and play therapy, as well as individual, family and addictions counseling.

We also offer Behavioral Home Health Plus (BHHP), which is a program through CCBH Clinton/Lycoming County for adults ages 18 years and older who have a serious mental illness (SMI) and medical concerns.
