Quiet Rooms.
Honest Talk.

A wooden door standing open onto a sunlit sitting room

Six counselors share four rooms on the second floor of a brick building on Williamson Street, two blocks from Lake Monona. We see adults, couples and teenagers from 12 up, for anxiety, grief, a stuck relationship or a year that has been too much.

The first call is 20 minutes, free, and with a counselor rather than a front desk. You hear how we would work, what a session costs and who on our team fits, then decide in your own time.
