Assisting With Life’s Struggles

 

Most everyone needs some type of occasional assistance with life’s struggles. You may be suffering grief from the loss of a family member, a divorce, or the loss of a job. The stresses of daily living may have you to the point of exhaustion. Or perhaps, you are experiencing problems in some family relationship.

 

The LOC Counseling Center provides a wide range of services for people of all ages and backgrounds. Our therapists are highly trained, motivated and caring, and utilize a number of counseling techniques. Our task is to help you reach your highest potential.

 

Our therapists utilize both individual and group therapy. Couple and family therapy are also available, along with play therapy and educational groups. Each treatment plan is tailored to meet the needs of the client.

 

Special adult groups are conducted to support grandparents raising their grandchildren, and parents struggling with learning disabilities. Social support groups are available for those with chronic mental illness. Weekly Groups are conducted in two Lancaster nursing facilities.
