At Active Counseling & Therapeutic Solutions (ACTS), we do what our name implies. We actively work with clients to find solutions that work 'now' to create a better future for themselves and the community. ACTS does this by using the most current tools of therapeutic change in a supportive and uplifting environment. We believe in the importance of every client we serve. Everyone should feel significant in their environment. From this personal empowerment then comes a community based on strong individuals working towards common goals.

ACTS provides group and individual counseling for DUI's, Minors in Possession, Women's Groups, Relapse Prevention, plus Evaluations and Assessments for Drug & Alcohol Issues. ACTS now offers mental health counseling and comprehensive mental health/substance abuse evaluations. We work with self-referrals, law-related referrals, and work-related referrals. Our fees are very competitive and we work with sliding scale and indigent clients as well.

Temperance Tales: A Journalist Who Drinks Says We Aren't Demonizing Alcohol Sufficiently
