Given Guidance
Family Counseling

In the fast-paced, ever-changing world we live in, maintaining healthy relationships and mental well-being can be a challenge. Families, children, teens, couples, and individuals often find themselves overwhelmed by relational issues, anxiety, depression, or significant life transitions. Given Guidance Family Counseling is here to support our community in La Crescenta and throughout Los Angeles County through these challenges, offering a compassionate, person-centered approach to therapy that helps clients rediscover balance and build thriving relationships.

Whether it’s a family struggling to communicate, a teen facing the pressures of adolescence, or a couple navigating the complexities of their relationship, the impact of these challenges can be profound. We understand that each individual’s experience is unique, and we tailor our therapeutic services to meet those specific needs. At the heart of our practice is a commitment to person-centered care. This means that we see each client as an individual with their own story, strengths, and potential. Our therapists work collaboratively with clients to create a safe, supportive environment where they can explore their feelings, identify their goals, and develop strategies to overcome obstacles. Given Guidance Family Counseling offers a range of therapeutic services for individuals and families, designed to support our diverse community. Our group therapy sessions provide a space for individuals with similar experiences to connect and heal together.

Many clients have found hope and healing through our services. If you or someone you know is struggling with relational issues, anxiety, depression, or navigating a significant life transition, reach out today. Our team is dedicated to helping you find the support and guidance you need to thrive. Call us today to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation and take the first step towards a healthier, happier future.
