Our Chambersburg office brings licensed, compassionate mental health care to individuals, couples, and families across Franklin County. Some clients come to us after a loss, a hard season, or a big life transition. Others are ready to work through anxiety, depression, or past trauma. Either way, our clinicians take the time to understand your story and build a plan that fits your life.
The office is on the third floor at 50 Black Avenue which is accessible from the rear entrance. Clients come to us from Chambersburg, Shippensburg, Greencastle, Waynesboro, Mercersburg, Fayetteville, and surrounding communities. If getting to the office is hard, telehealth appointments are available with select clinicians.
Our Chambersburg team provides child and adult therapy, as well as counseling for couples and families. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your relationship, we’ll help you take the next step toward feeling like yourself again.
