Parent Support Counseling is a therapeutic treatment modality provided for parents with children up to age 18, who are searching for more effective strategies to manage their child’s challenging behaviors. Parent Support Counseling offers short-term, solution focused approaches to specific concerns in our Outpatient Clinic. We are in-network with many commercial insurance providers and also offer a sliding fee scale for parent support counseling.
Collaboration between Madison Public Schools and Madison Youth & Family Services allows us to offer 10 free parent support counseling sessions. These sessions are available to parents of children in pre-kindergarten through grade 3, who are referred through a grant known as “School Community Outreach Program Exchange” or SCOPE. SCOPE services are short-term and delivered in a combination of in-home and in-office sessions. SCOPE services include:
- consultation on child development and positive discipline
- education and support groups for parents
- solution focused approach to problem solving
- family advocacy
- family assessment
- referral for appropriate post SCOPE services
