Austin Child Guidance Center provides mental health evaluation and counseling services to youth age 17 and younger who are experiencing emotional, behavioral or social problems and their families.

Families seek our help when a child or adolescent may be experiencing such challenges as:

• Angry most of the time,
• Exhibiting poor concentration,
• Engaging in risky behaviors,
• Having problems in school,
• Withdrawing from family and friends,
• Experiencing prolonged sadness, and/or
• Anxious or constantly worried.

We get referrals from various sources including former clients, school personnel, health or social service agencies, other professionals, court or law enforcement, and managed care.
